Damn, wish I would have seen that before I built my light fixture thingie. Anyone use CFLs like that here?

Then only downside for something like this, if you are using CFLs through the whole grow is the inability to change bulbs easily. I bought a bunch of sockets that used a vampire tap system (best way I can describe it) so I have like 15 of them on a single cord. But when I go into flowering all I gotta do is unscrew bulbs and put in new ones.
