Build Your Own Fluorescent Light Fixture

You need to buy a spiral cfl with the proper wattage you want.

Build your own fluorescent light fixture.

Each letter will be constructed of 4 lights. To replace remove the old tube and bring it to the hardware store. A burnt out lamp is the most common reason any light fixture does not light. Or you can read the printing on the tube to identify the correct replacement type.

A fluorescent tube that is failed or failing usually has darkened areas near one or both ends of the tube. This greatly decreases the cost of the fixture. I want to build several letters out of fluorescent light bulbs for example one letter is o but it will look more like. I want to use bulbs that are 2 4 feet long or what ever is easiest.

This is great fixture for growing plants. Just attach the bulb ballasts plug it in. For t5 s and pc bulbs the wattages are basically equivalent. From scratch without buying light fixtures and taking them apart.

This guide shows how to build a system that will fit for almost any growing needs indoors.
