Thanks for the input. I looked for a Y adaptor earlier today when I was buying all this but no place had them... any suggestions? I tried walmart, lowes, tractor supply, etc. no place has them. Also, I moved the cups closer to the wall and put the light about 2-3" from the top of the cups.

Do you guys think if I get a Y adaptor and put two CFL 26w in there, will that be enough light for now? Or what if I just put in one 40w CFL in there?
