Hi all, I bought a dymax rex t5 2ft light from a fellow AQ member here a few weeks back. Realised its quite a big step down from my 55w PL to 14Wx2 T5 light and went ahead and bought 2x 24w t5 tubes, fitted them and found out that they work and is brighter than the 14w stock tubes.

My question is, is it supposed to be compatible like this? Cos from what I read so far, T5 550mm tubes are 14W and T5HO 550mm tubes are 24W.

Would an Odyssey dual pro T5HO 24Wx2 make a difference from my current Dymax Rex 24Wx2 lightset? Would it be brighter?
