Need Lights

[westwind1124]

I am needing some lights for my 75. I am looking for either nova extreme pro, or possibly an outer orbit depending on the price.

Go retro. You will get more for your money. Thought you were getting rid of your tank?

 

[westwind1124]

Retro?... I was going to but I slept on it and chad and jesse kinda talked me out of getting rid of it.

 

[Fireworm]

Retro... where you buy the peices and put it together yourself. Lots cheaper usually

 

[mojo~]

what are you lookin to spend?

 

[westwind1124]

ah IC....I am not really wanting to build a hood so retro I dont know will work. I like the look of the stand type lights better and they are much less work than building a canopy. Money wise, i would prefer not to spend more than 250 if I can. I have seen refurbed ones around that much.

I am wanting to upgrade my lights on my 75. Where would I find refurbshed lights at? Are they worth the discount? What lights would be recomened?

 

[Fireworm]

for a 75 I would run either 250w MHs with T5 actinics or just run straight T5.

 

[tex77083]

Wich one would be more cost efictive? Can you buy these refurbshed?

 

[Fireworm]

They are about the same in price overall. It is cheaper to run the T5s though. I have never seen refurbished lights to begin with, but you can get retro kits for them both. That is all I have ever bought is retro. You will have to do some wireing but it is all very easy and simple.
