Setting up CFLs for micro grow

How handy are you, that setup does not look too complicated, go to walmart or home depot and get a bathroom fixture, wire it up horizontally and attach an old computer cable...done

If your a little more handy, measure and cut a piece of wood, (1/4" ply should work) you may even be able to find it in home depots scrap bin, get some light sockets, drill a hole with a holesaw thats the same diameter as the sockets and mount them through the holes, wire them all up in parallel, with said computer cable ...done

also, be safe about it, use the correct wire nuts and so on and take all safety precautions

And many of these:

Some people zip tie the power strip to the case, others tie it, or glue it.
 
This is what I put together in about a half hour for under $10. I'll post a pic of it in action later, my pic files seem to be too large to upload more than one at a time.
