Be sure you purchase a universal or vertical bulb and find a way to suspend your mogul. They do make one that looks like a junction box with a mogul coming out the bottom and two 90* sheet metal parts to hang it from with a standard light hood hanger. I have a few, I'll take a picture tomorrow for ya.

the mogul in my sun systems hood has a hook to hang it vertical with. i always stared at it thinking "why would you hang a hood sideways". if i just took it out of the hood..... lol.

Exactly, that is what I use them for. Replacements for my Sun Gro 2 hood! LOL
