straight pin to square pin (adapter) for 2- 65w PC bulbs - end cap swap
Hey guys,
Recently bought two straight pin PC 65w bulbs (454 and super actinic). My fixture takes square pin...ooppps UV doesn't make those bulbs in square pin and I am really interested to see how the 454 looks. Anyone in the lower mainland either have an adapter (straight to square) or know where to buy them in Vancouver? Found a seller on ebay... but would rather buy local. http://cgi.ebay.com/Aquarium-power-c...88c3e38d4#shId Any help would be great! Cheers guys! |
J&L carries them.

For future ref, JL carries straight pin end caps, not the adapters. It looks like you can rewire from square pin to straight pin tho. Will you all know if it is a success!

Swapped over the end cap from Square to Straight. Did a little research and the two middle pins are the grounds. So after figuring out the wiring, turned it on and ta-da! Presto change-o square to straight.
Have UVI 454 and Super Actinic installed now. Pretty happy with the change. Although the 454 is quite blue...will see how I like it with time. |
