And I agree with both of the above posters ...
I wish I had the power to do just that Thunder ... I really do.
But, I'm not working with my money. And the guy that pays the band names the tune, ya know? I'm just the conductor.
What I was trying to do is this: "The test is over and I'm here to report findings. Doing a test of two different types of lighting systems in the same room is not optimal. In fact it will affect results adversely. BUT, with that said, I still got great results. Increase weight under those lights of x%, better tricome production (see comparative pictures), and computed power savings of x%. I recommend switching an entire room to further test with no interference from other lighting sources."
That's what I was TRYING to do ... sell the boss on something that is obvious to us.
But, getting approval on $20,000 in upgrades, and a down room for two weeks (another $5000) ... when I can't say any of that is unlikely.
We are turning that room next week, I will do my computations, and prolly not report them ... but do it again.
Oh, and the 8 week cut thing ... not gonna change. It's what our customers want; and we give a paying customer what she wants, not what she needs.
