any tips about MH reflectors?

[Capt_Cully]

Just entertaining the idea of ditching my fixtures and going with mogul MH's with individual reflectors and T5's as supplements. Cost of DE bulbs is a little higher, and my current set up is a PITA to change the bulbs in. My canopy has fans and plenty of room.

Any suggestions for reflectors to check out? Thanks.

There are many options for reflectors out there but from personal experience I can say the difference was remarkable when I switched from regular ole Spider reflectors to two of these Lumenarc Minis.

Lumenmax elites all the way! Or the Lumenmax 2's for a little less instensity. Wish I could find the website that tested all the reflectors, but I believe the LM Elite came out on top.

I have the small lumenbright, and it made a huge difference as well. I haven't looked at reflectors for a year now, but then it was either lumenarc or lumenbright for me.

I don't want to steal your thunder Cully, I'll be brief... a major concern for me is how high do these have to be mounted to avoid the spot light effect? I would like to keep my canopy under 12" high.
