    Lol, everyone's asking questions!

    I've seen the set but not sure how much it is. Didn't bother to ask. The light tubes are 8000K? That's good news. And one more note, it looks like the normal "Mr Chan lights", as in grey aluminium cover and all. Same look, different innards

    8000k is good news ? I'm thinking of getting a 2ft T5HO 24w x 2 lightset. What would be the prefered combination of tube ?

    10000k and 6500k ? I'm considering. Newbie here doesn't know much effect of light in term of K.

    I saw T5HO 6500k and 10000k light before. Both looked the same color and equally very bright. Not like PL where the 10000k is obviously a bit blue and the 6500k a bit light orange (sunlight) color.

    try www.delightings.com if you have a little extra cash. I think the fittings is nice and the reflector are much better, providing better efficiency and coverage.

    Agree with lorba. Parabolic reflector is definitely better.

    Personally, I trying 6500K with 10000K tube. Ratio 1:3.
