    Lol.... I agree. It was more a topic of how expensive the electricity is for for different lighting systems in comparison, I think we all understand that there is electricity involved, and that costs money. I am just looking for the way to most efficiently run my system with the least amount of...

    Oops, I didn't realize you can't post competetor links... sorry. Does SWF even have hoods and fixtures? I didn't see any when I was browsing. Thanks for the advice, I will look more into it.
