    Hi,

    I'm looking for some T8 tubes rated at 120W each,are all T8 tubes the same length or do they differ?

    Also what would be the best place to buy lighting in Pretoria?

    My WPL is sitting at 0.3 and i would like to buff it up to 0.9,i don't think my swords can grow with the current lights.

    Thanks

    Google ACDC Electronics. They have a branch in Centurion and Pretoria. They also have a online catalog.

    All T8's have different lengths. You have a 3ft, 4ft, 5ft and a 6ft. The length of the tube will determine the wattage.

    So you have to get more tubes to increase the overall wattage?

    I have 3x T8/40w tubes that are around 3ft
