[vince]

Anyone live in U.S. and have purchased a PC set in sizes of 48 inches?
I just want to compare the prices.

It's me again
I've got the JBL compact PC 48" 4 55 watt bulbs Paid 329.00 for it about 6 months ago.

I purchased 36" 2-55w PC for $130. I know you want to know about 48" PC, but thought this might help--Bob

Thanks for the info guys,
it's just that this one store gave me an outrageous price of 840 dollars.
Thank you for the prices, I will purchase the lightings somewhere else.

 

[amphiprion]

That is an absolutely outrageous price You can get them on line much cheaper.

Wow that lfs is really trying to rip people off !
1 year ago I bought CSL 48" ABS hood w/fan (2) 55 Watt 6,700K & (2) 55 Watt Actinic
$390.00 online

i found a store that sells them for $219 U.S. dollars. They give you double 86 watt lights. Does this sound like a good deal?

 

[misty]

86? Haven't seen 86-watts in my research. Are you sure it's not 96? And if it is...please e-mail me the store so I can get some!
Is it a hood or a retro kit? Do you know the specifics?
My e-mail is johnandmisty@hotmail.com

I... think the guy said 86. why? is 86 rare or something? sorry.. I might be mistaken.
what's the difference between a hood and a retro kit?
