My set was $500 for 4x 54w HO T5s.
But I do see your point on the cost breakdown.I found my T5s much better than my 175MH,But maybe thats because they are HO,and the 175 dosn't have a very good reflector.My next tank I plan on useing 150 MH(Shallow tank).All the lights have their uses,so I dont feel Ive wasted money on any of my fixtures.Just need to stay within their limits.
