Where to find ballasts
 

Hi, I am going to go the DIY route for my T5 lighting, and was wondering if there are any local stores that would carry WH 5/7, Triad or Advanced Ballasts. If it's cheaper then to buy online I would like to purchase locally if possible.

Thanks

i bought a wh7 from aquaria.ca for $54.99 + shipping, it does 4x48" (54w) t5s no problem

at habitat for humanity they have regular floresent balasts for 2$ they'll run 2 4 foot bulbs, I know it's not T5 but for any one else interested in NO

really good deal

probably a magnetic ballast for 2 t12s ;)

When I buy my T5 setup I will be getting it from AqualuxLighting. They've got the WH7 for $40 USD.

Albrite in Coquitlam, last time I bought a WH7 it was $55 Cdn a good deal all around.
