ive been looking for cfl options here in the land of oz and so far and am curious to have some input on my choices.
the main 2 are "studio" 125/135W bulbs. 5500k and 2700k. im currently thinking of using one of the 135w 2700k with a few 45w 5500k bulbs for a experiment. my questions i guess is has anyone used these types of bulbs? how much heat will they produce? and are they worth the effort?
i cant find any brands for the lights so i will just leave the ebay links below
45w 5500k
NEW2X 45W Daylight Bulb FOR Photography 5500K Studio Light Lamp Photo Lighting | eBay
115-150W 5500k
150W Photography Photo Studio White Light Lighting Bulb E27 5500K Last 8000 Hour | eBay
135W 2700k
135W 220V E27 2700K Photography Daylight Bulb Continuous Light Ligting CFL Lamp | eBay
the plan as i said would be one of the 135w 2700k + 2-4 of the 45w 5500k.i have a reflector i want to rig up for the 135w and leave the 45's hanging free. space currently is my main issue. until i can get a tent or wardrobe or something im limited to a very small area and worried about cooking the plants....
hope this makes scene. its been a long awhile since ive used a forum so im a bit scratchy and thanks for reading
