Re: [Digital BW] Solux Bulbs

2005-10-23 by tariqgibranstudio

I pay $6.95 for my Solux bulbs here: http://www.usalight.com/bulbs/soluxbulbs.htm?
cart=113008321812896877

and they last forever.  In my Gallery, out of about 30 Solux bulbs, I have had only 3 go out 
in the past year!  The majority are on 8 hours a day for 5 days a week BUT 6 are on day 
and night everyday... for a whole year now!  They are well worth the $$$'s plus, of course, 
almost no UV emmision and full spectrum output.
