Check out the big brain on Upthedownstrs! That is a fine example of hydro from the ghetto. It's way cool + rep. Your choice of beer however.....

Thanks everyone for the comments and the reps.

Mikemirve, I got the socket at homedepot I think. Pretty sure they have them in the electrical section with the light-switch covers and plugs and zipties and shit.

lol socket adapters are sold out whenever i go to home depot or walmart, for the 4 i have i bought out the last 2 which i found lying around not even in the right spot.. both times, i just got a few y-sockets to add a bit more light in. I love your using keystone light lol thats my favorite type of cheap beer, going to try this soon

Nope, no heat issues. Aluminum is great for dissipating heat and doesnt retain it long so it's a great metal to use for this application.

Thanks again for all the positive comments everyone. Im glad this is helping out so many people. Good luck to those of you who are going to try out the idea!

Maybe people could start to post pics of their attempts and show how they're working for their grows! That would be great to see.
