    How many 36W PL do you intend to have? E ballast comes with single PL or double PLs per unit. Cost for single is around $25. PL per tube(6500k) range from $9- $18 depends on brands. You can get them from electrical shop. You will need a connector to link up the 4 wires from the PL to the 4 terminals at the e ballast. A power cable, a metal clip to hold the light to the hood & some screws. Reflectors sold in lfs are normally meant for FL(tube), it might not fit nicely.

    I brought my lights and other accessories at Kelantan Rd.
    There is one shop at Blk 26 (I think). You can get all the things u need there. Remember to ask for discount.[]

    Nature Aquarium has very fair prices for PL light and e-Ballast. Also have light clips for your DIY project. I think no reflector. Check it out.
