PC Bulbs
 
Anyone else interested in some PC bulbs?

Found a good deal here and if there is a couple of us it really will be worth it.

I know they are Jebo but when you work it out its only $13+- per bulb. Even with express shipping.

Let me know

I don't know about PC bulbs, is there anything wrong with Jebo?

Anyhow at that kind of price I'd be in for a bunch. I have a pile of fixtures with old bulbs. I'd be in for (at least) 2x6500 for my FW and 2x12000K and maybe 1 actinic. Or maybe 1 50/50 as well..

What kind of numbers do we need to make a go of this?

Brite Lite in Calgary sells 55watt 23" 10000k PC's... got 5 for $7.15 each...

They are getting in Actinic next friday....

Thats where I bought my whole ballast bulbs plug setup...

I could get in for 1 of the 50/50 bulbs for my FOWLR tank. The bulb in it is only three months old now, but for that price I would pick up a replacement to have on hand.

I was probably going to buy 3 - 10000k and 3 - Actinic for myself. So most likely we will be looking at 3 boxes or more.

Lets give it a couple of more days and see who else wants to jump in. Then we can finalize everything with the seller.

I imagine Jebo is probably the same quality as everyone else. I am sure they are made in China by one manufacturer and just stamped with different names. From there every company marks them up differently.

Lets get to some final numbers so i can hopefully place the order by the end of the week.

If anyone else wants in let me know

Maybe someone else who has an ebay account can try and get a hold of this guy. He has not responded to 3 emails of mine, yet he has great feedback.

It seems like we would be most likely interested in about 3 boxes in total, i will keep extras in case others are in need of some. Plus 2 18 watt replacement UV bulbs.

If we could try and figure out how much shipping would be i would put in the order.

Thanks

Steve

Personally, I think the local Brite-Lite option for the 55W is a great idea. Their 6500K is a sheer white, and bright as blazes. Unless they switched suplliers again, they rock.

I know you're keen on the others, but just in case.

Cheers,
Alan

Thanks Alan. I have considered them as well. The problem is i need some actinic as well as 10,000K so it limits me.

Do a RC search on jebo Steve, I could have sworn I read on there,
That the first thing you do when you get a jebo fixture is throw out the crappy jebo bulbs.
