see NR thread....these have gotta be rough, import junk....likely no individual reflectors, super cheap construction...save the money and save for a quality brand.

Check the trading forums and your local forums (as well as craigslist) if you're looking for a good deal on a used fixture.
If you want to buy new, this

IDK about the one you linked... the key is to have individual reflectors or at least one reflector that is bent to fit around each bulb.
