yeah i told you Micheals had them. i thought i was going to go pick one up last week, only to find out it was closed....for good...damn missed the sale. lol
Well thanks, and that sucks that you missed their clearance.

If there's another one in your area I noticed with my receipt yesterday they also printed out a 50% off one regular priced item coupon good Feb 1st - 14th. I'm going to go back, they have more stuff there that looked useful for things other than crafts.

There's a super tall big vase that's like $20 and seemed like over 2' long. Longer than two of these chimneys put together and much heavier.
I want to try this on it:

I just bought those same candle chimneys today, found them at the local Michaels craft store for $6ea after someone mentioned that store.

Now I need to find insulated ducting...

I'm thinking about connecting them with muffler tape. Think that'll last?
Oregon u think this would be good for a 400 as well? Holy crap thanks for this info man!

this sounds like a good idea...the heat seams to loosen the duct tape a little...the foil tape in the middle holds great also....:weed: after I ordered my glass tubes online i saw them in beverlys crafts...it pays to just go everywhere and search the isles...

Probably. As long as your fan was never off while the light was on or uneven heat of that level could easily crack these. Just put the fan on 24/7.



Two 40's would work I guess but they'd be short. I was thinking more along the lines of wine bottles, those extra tall ones, but the vase will only be $10 and it's worth it for me to try that. Beer sounds good now that you mention it though. Who cares if they end up too short, sounds tasty...

Uneven heat cracks glass that isn't pyrex.
You have to bend a mount out of metal to bolt the blub holder to like the pics above.

Unscrew the bulb holder then you'll see two wires, you just extend those two wires to remote the ballast. You can stick the ballast in a dead computer power supply if you want to make it look all neat and stick a wall wart in there to power the fan of the power supply if you want to get all fancy.

juat google for 150w hps, it'll give you a bunch of lighting stockists who sell hps gear, or look for industrial/commercial lighting stores..
There are thousands of places that sell HID lighting just need to do some browsing.

Not sure if all H depot stores are still carrying the 150hps..

It was like the sweet nectar of the gods, after it was dryed and cured the smoke was reminiscent of Fruit Loops, so thats the name of the strain I gave it.
