I bought it in Taipei. It was made in China. I bought it for about US$30, which is about half the price of similar 3-bulb 2' T5 units I checked out before. This cheapness explains my buyingness.GratefulDiver":1runbvyz said:Where'd you get this sucker JH?
Wish I could. But this is my first T5 of any kind, so I can't even eyeball compare.GratefulDiver":1runbvyz said:Also.. - Have you / can you check its PAR vs another T5 setup?
Great question. Should've mentioned this earlier. On one end of each bulb is written: T5-14WGratefulDiver":1runbvyz said:What about the bulbs... - Any info labeled on them beyond just "T5"?
Nothing that I could find. The only labeling is on the box it came in. It says: Colorful HY-600T5B.GratefulDiver":1runbvyz said:Anything stamped on the inside of the fixture anywhere?
GratefulDiver":1runbvyz said:I'm guessing you got ripped, thats why I'm curious about the PAR vs a known good T5 rig..

Did you end up trying this?JohnHenry":2wxfvc28 said:I wonder if I should go buy a new T5 bulb to try in this unit. If it works, then I'll know these are in fact ordinary T5s.
Any chance it will explode?
