I dont have any links but if you roll over to home depot and check their outdoor lighting and security light section you will find 40,60,80,100w cfl's and they are NOT equivalents... they are replacement bulbs for cfl security lights and are in a white box. and are about 15-20$ a bulb depending on the wattage.. or you can just fork out 40 bucks more and get a 150w hps light.:blsmoke:

i was at the home depot looking for lighting and in kind of an offshoot of the lighting, they were for like pets i think and they come with a outlet cord and a reflector.

polarity doesnt matter, you just use the 2 coated wires and wire them to a plu(extension cord, fan cord) the fixture has 3 wires but one is a nuetral( it has no coating, snip it off or just stick it back in the fixture) its as simple as that man 2 wires from the fixture 2 wires from your plug. hook em up and dont forget to electrical tape them bitches...peace

I was just looking into doing a total cfl setup after my aerogarden has finished budding. They have 2600 lum full spectrum cfl lights, about $9 per bulb:peace: Great job dude!
