anyone familiar with Sun Blaze T5 HO Fluorescent Light Fixtures?

[Dan]

Trying to find a decent/affordable t5 ho fixture and i came across Sun Blaze T5 HO Fluorescent Light Fixtures

There is a local dealer on craigslist that is selling the 8 lamp Sun Blaze T5 HO Fluorescent Light Fixtures for $199

I have fans i can add to the light but im not sure if the ballasts are any good

Let me know if i should consider buying this fixture

thank you

One thing to think about is that this comes with 6500k bulbs. It eats into your savings to have a stack of bulbs you won't likely use sitting around.

Not familiar with the brand, but I'm shopping too.

They are decent fixtures, but not designed for SW applications, they corrode..

Jeremy- would a simple coat of paint alleviate the majority of this problem?
