    Hi guys, i need some info on my light at home. I have this 3 ft PL light. The case is now in very bad condition. The Plastic thing at the side is already crack and broke (may be due to the heat), the transparent plastic sheet where the light is shinning through is also crack and broke. the switch is out of the socket BlaBlaBla... But my eblast and my PL tubes are working fine. I wunder what should i do? is there any place where i can get just a new casing and help me install the blast and tube on it?

    Some info on this would help greatly as i fear 1 day either my fishes or myself will get electrocuted, or worst, my house get burned down...

    Thanks
    -Ricky

    Personally, I would discard the ballast and light tube if it's more than 2 years old.

    It may be cheaper to get a new 3ft light than to replace the casing. Anyway, you may want to try bringing your lights set to NA and ask Chan for his advice.

    Thanks everyone for ur PMs and advice. I'll most likely switch to a T5 since it's more powerful.
