I think it was done earlier in this thread.

 

On a side note: I ordered two of these fixtures, and they called saying they only had one left.

Luckily I found an unused one later that week for sale.

 

 

Just one person that added a cord to a two switch two ballast 8 light.

 

Is there a way to do this to a 4 bulb sigle switch single ballast?

Yea I am actually a little torn because it doesn't look like I am going to get to use mine at all now. I was planning a 24x24x24 cube, but the fiance likes the idea of a 36x36x27, so I am not going to argue!

Just whipped my 2 back out the box and the hanging kits. These lights are AWESOME. Look just like a Tek fixture to me. I am trying to decide whether or not to sell mine or keep them. If I decided to do the 30x30x20 cube 2 of these lights would be the perfect lighting.

Way to resurrect an old thread!

This light is what got me started on T5HO and what got that T5HO Information thread started as well.

I've used both this light and a TEK light over my tank, and I have to say that I really think this light is just as good as a TEK.

I say hang on to these and use them, they're great little lights.

So I picked up a new light a couple of days ago. Good part was it was a screaming deal, bad part was it has two switches and one plug and no splash guards. I went to Tap plastics and had some splash guards cut and will be installing those next week with some magnets more on that later. Well here are the pics and what I've done to the light so far. It's an 8 bulb T5 and looks just like a Tek light, my brother is fabricating me some legs instead of me having to pay $70 for the Tek ones.

Now I can run a dawn and dusk affect on timers. I'll post pics of the legs when my brother finishes them.
