HELP 150W CFL is Crooked?!

sflshreddin · Nov 1, 2012

Alright so I got my 150W and screwed it to this reflector, the socket size is the same and everything and I didnt screw it on too hard I think.
so the light is drooping down about an inch and its crooked to the left by about half an inch.. what can i do?

If the light turns on and seems to work ok I wouldn't worry abt it, just a manufacturing boo boo. are you sure you didn't cross thread it? try removing it and re-srewing it on.

My 125w cfl does this in my euro reflector. I just put it down to the weight of the bulb, I think some reflectors are designed to hold much lighter weighted hps/ bulbs.

Yes it's going to raise it thousands. JP

No a 150w cfl wont amount to more than pennies on your bill lol. They aren't pulling much electricity at all. Maybe like 1.25 amps. You aren't going to notice one 150w cfl. Your tv and other appliances use way more than that.

Kick back and relax and enjoy your grow.
