[Wet Thumb Forum]-Where to buy 55w compact bulbs? Not on Line - DIY Aquarium Projects

rrguymon · 07-14-2005, 07:03 PM

Hi, All I ordered the AH supply 2 55w bright light kit. One of the bulbs is broken. I found it that way when I put it together tonight.

To get it replaced I guess I need to send the light back to them then they will ship me a new one. I need light sooner than that?

I did not see any at home depot. Any ideas?

Thanks

Call around to some of the LFS in your area, I believe you can also use a 65 watt pc as well, just make sure it is in the spectrum you want, mine are 6700.

you could get one shipped priority. it usually only tankes 2 days. i'm not sure of your situation, but it seems like you could make it work.

Ok thanks for the Info. I was hoping a place like wallmart or home depot would carry them. haha

I did call AH supply and Kim was nice enough to send me a new one today. I can just throw the old one away. I should get the new light on Monday

. I also ordered an extra just in case one burns out haha.

Another great example of how customer service oriented AHSupply is...I'm fortunate in that I have two local light supply companies that carries a huge array of bulb/lamps. Bulbman.com has a store less than 5 miles from my home.

Yes, Kim is very nice, AHS has the best customer service. They did the same for me the last time one of my bulb didnt work. Replaced and tell me to throw the old one away.

Glad you like AHS.
