which lighting would be better

[jbomar3771]

im going to get either the
Odyssea 48" 760W Metal Halide System with Power Compact
or the
Odyssea 48" 716W Metal Halide System with T5 HO
which would be the better one?

I think they both would be fairly equal. But I would go for the T5 unit, as it provides better penetration for the supplementation bulbs.

But make sure you read up on the odyssea thread. I haven't checked it in a while, but when I bought my 24" MH/PC system, the ballasts were underpowered and needed to be replaced as a DIY project.
