Coverage area is about 5 x 5, Rob.

I'd guess about $30 for the CFL. The fixture alone is $60, and the bulb +
fixture is $90. They also have it with a 200W CFL for $160.

Chuck,

I am using a 125W CFL in my basement over trays of seedlings - Dendrobium
kingianum, Aerides flabellata, Aerides crassifolia, Phragmipedium China
Dragon & Phrag. Sherman's March are all doing great at about 3 feet
distance.

The particular bulb and fixture were from Farmtek for under $100

Hey Ray... What area are you covering with the CFL (approximately)? And
do you have an idea about the bulb life and replacement costs?

Thanks,

Rob
