Default Re: comparisons of heat mat costs and performance

They come from Lowes, Brand is Bright Effects Daylight 100w (6500k) that uses 26w...Flourescent bulbs. I think this brand works the best. You know the kind you can screw in a socket... A few years a go I seen someone using them for plantlights, so I gave it a try. $6.00 for a shop light $8.00 for a four pack of lights..... they are cheap and they work... & last for ever... Hang them were you want & you don't need to take a loan out to run them, also you don't have to worry about burning your house down as a bonus....... For larger areas I would use 4' flouresents with day lights with the smaller ones for increased lighting. Try walmart $19.00 for them, they also sell shop lights like the ones hanging in the picture as well, I think they have longer cords, that is a little nicer.... Plus walmart sells cheap light timers for $5.00 & they work pretty good.....
