I was reading through Rosemans thread about CFL's and he posted this link:

http://www.sunlightsheds.com/fluorescents.htm?gclid=CKTFtOnK0JgCFQ9JagodtgL32w

These prices straight up blow away any other place Ive seen for cfl's. Im surprised it wasn't posted already. You guys are slacking :)
WOW!! Not so much the cfls, but the 600 watt digital ballast for just over $200 delivered to my door., with cords is unbelievable. I wonder if this is a typo, but i figure they have to honor at least a few.

Look at #7 less than they want for the magnetic 600 watt hps, and this is digital and switchable. Thanks rep+

If you want cheaper 600w ballast you can get them from..well www.dchydro.com

A 600w Quantum digital is 165, but requres a hydrofarm adapter cord

They've also got a 600w Oracle Digital for $145 that also requires an adapter cord.

No idea on quality of them though, but probably better than the generic chinese one I got when I bought my package deal :)

ok heres one for heating and cooling [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=+1]Thermostatic Outlets http://www.littlegreenhouse.com/accessory/controls.shtml

[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]What is a Differential?[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=-1] The difference between on and off setpoints on a control. For temperature, it is the difference in degrees between the thermostat's on and off setting. If you set a heating thermostat with a 3 degree differential to 71°, it will supply power at any temperature below 71° and cut off at 74° (3 degrees above the setpoint). A cooling thermostat would cut on above 71° and off at 68°.[/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=-1]Need an inexpensive and simple thermostat? Thermostatic outlets are the answer. These unique devices plug into a standard electrical outlet and have an internal preset thermostat. Outlets come in two models. The Cooling outlet supplies power at 78° and cuts off at 70° and works great for all types of fans including exhaust, circulation, window, attic, and ceiling fans. The Heating outlet supplies power at 35° and cuts off at 45° and is great for automating heaters to keep room temperatures above freezing. Each outlet has two receptacles and can be used with 110/120 volt outlets and appliances (15 amp/110v). hope this helps :o:hump:

Related to this thread:

Has anyone ever heard of an Internet retailer being a trap or otherwise getting a grower caught?

Some of the deals on here seem too good to be true. They make me nervous, but I need some equipment, and don't have much in the way of money.

The things you should be paranoid about are smell and telling people you know about your grow not buying equipment over the internet for your grow.

I hear ya, Nick, and thanks for the reply.

What you say makes sense to me, but I want to be as careful as I reasonably can in every area, so I figured I would put it up here, and see if anyone has knowledge of the thing I am ascared of.

I can't tell ya how many times I looked back and said to myself "Ya know, the thing is, I kinda KNEW (something), but I did'n't act on it"

(ya know, things when like my ex was cheatin on me, or like figuring out after the fact {after the breakup with the ex, of course) that a certain girl was tryin to tell me she wanted to hook up, but I didn't fully realize it until after I had no way of ever seeing her again, or that time I ate the Chinese food in spite of the fact that something about it was "off", then spent the next 48 hours not knowing which end to put in the toilet)

Back to you post tho, Nick, you are sayin you have bought a lot of stuff online from different retailers and have never had an issue, and have never heard of anyone having one?

Yes I have bought tons of equipment online from many different companies and never had a problem and have never really heard of anyone else having a problem. They are there to make money and getting your customers arrested doesn't make for repeat customers.

I am more concerned with LEO putting up a fake store to get easy leads on busts.

Hmm... You sound like an Atlantis rep or something to that effect... Yeah, I couldn't pass up some soil, b/c you know that's what I'm thinking about during Christmas... Shopping for gardening supplies. Please:rolleyes: Especially not knowing his habits or behavior. No one can afford soil just chilling on the front porch in its plain packaging for all to see, unless you live in the boondocks. 'Looking forward to seeing that wonderful garden this summer neighbor'!

No, they don't stealth wrap their soil, FYI. Found out the hard way, and I had the above stated scenario! Good times:shock:
