Default CFL or HPS?
permalink
Hey,

I have used a 50W HPS in a computer case, Yeah I did and it didn't get hot at all. I just used 2 computer fans.

Anywho, should I use this time a 50W HPS or 4 CFL's. If I use CFL's it will be MUCH MUCH cheaper or should I go with an HPS. You decide.

Why not try the CFL's this time and compare notes.

At the very least you can pass down your newly gained knowledge to everyone!

Yeah, 50W HPS's work, they do not get hot at all. The only ventilation I had was two 80mm computer fans.
