I need lights.. nova extreme

[romsoccer12]

i have the nova extreme pro 20" t5 fixture

i had a thread earlier about replacing the bulbs on it, but apparently the lights were out of stock and not possible to get

just wondering if there is any online store i can buy replacement bulbs. i have had these old light bulbs for around a year and a half and i really need to replace them, and i am not looking to buy a new fixture.

I did a quick search and couldn't find the actual bulb dimensions, the fixture is 20" so does it maybe use 18" lamps? Measure them, or look on the lamps for a length. Both 18 and 22" lamps are readily available, you don't have to go stock or from the same manufacturer even.

the bulbs are 16"

You might have to buy them from the manufacturer because I've never heard of 16" T5HO bulbs

thats what they measured out to be, 16". and apparently from my last thread the manufacturer is out of bulbs

I think you are just better off getting a new fixture or gutting out your current one and retro fitting in LEDs
