Amazon is your best bet. Don't know cost, it could be easier to make your own. Also I think your foil lining may cause hotspots. GL

Hey dude!

That was yesterday, I’ve taken the lining out at the moment until I find a CFL socket, I’ve found some online but they are at 90• angle which is a bit annoying... I’ll do some more searching.

I didn’t the front of of the box today, blacked it all off and refitted the extension with ties. Looks better.

How do you suggest wiring it up myself? I must admit my wiring skills are limited when it comes to multiple, I managed to do 1 bulb yesterday when fooling around but wouldn’t know how to wire multiple without having multiple plug sockets...

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate you trying to help.

You can get a 3way junction box which will give you 3 outputs from 1 socket, about a quid from Wilko or Screwfix and you can get the lamp holders from them as well, it's as simple as wiring a plug. You could attach the lamp holders to a small flat baking tray. Hit poundland they have loads of decent stuff and carry some nutes and a little hydro stuff

Thanks man! Poundland for hydro and nutes?! Haha, I like it :cool: I picked up 4 warm light 1320 lumen Phillips CFLs today.. I will get another 4 Bright whites for Vegging tomorrow. I'll try and find a junction box too.

I've not had any problems "yet" with the poundland nutes, but I've found that each shop doesn't carry the full line so I have to go to a couple of shops, the coir doesn't make the claimed 10lt more like 4lt.
