I have Fluorescent grow lights that are 23 x 13.5 x 3 inches ; 11.6 pounds. Is that too big or would I have to get smaller lights?

with this small tent i found out that my 125 flo. light fixture fits nice but you are taking away grow space. so i would find a light fixture that is small or make your own. check out you-tube. that is where i got my idea to make the light for my small tent. hope this help you out.

The Tent itself is 4 ft wide by 2 ft deep and 5 tall. It definitely has the dimensional space to encompass your grow light. I myself have HPS (High pressure sodium) light with hood, air filter and exhaust fan all hanging from the roof without any problems. The frame and support bars are solid and sturdy, so you will have no problem hanging your light structure.Here is a picture of my setup. http://i.imgur.com/3Mbarng.jpg

I am using a 2'x4' grow tent and have a 2'x4' 12 fluorescent tubes that's doing great

I would do some measuring of the area you have to work with. I have a set of shelves in my home office with moveable spots on the each end, then I put a t-5 fixture i the middle? But the fixture is 2' x 10'' with only (two) 2' T-5's in it. It is in a finished black case made to hang. These lights are bright so you might not need this many? My selves are 8''x12'x3/4". All fixtures are adaptable. Look for custom made ones that are made to fit that space unless you are a carpenter and an can enclose your own space. Once again with two t-5 lights and the two canister spots with 50 watt grow lights it is very bright when all are turned on. Hope this helps

The best answer would have to come from the manufacturer but I think that a grow light would be no problem if you didn't lean it right up against the wall/cover. I hung a work light (probably at least 60 watts) on one of the metal shelves in mine last winter to try & add a little heat & I had no problem.

No idea what the requirements are but I can tell you these fluorescent lights will fit into a normal size incandescent socket. However, the fluorescent tubes are bigger than a normal sized incandescent light. If your application doesn't have much room beyond what an incandescent light occupies then you'll probably run into an issue.

They are not made to be used specifically as grow lights or they would be packaged differently. They might help but I don't know for sure.

Hi - I ordered this a few weeks ago to plug into a brand new outdoor light fixture I purchased at Lowes, so I could insert a regular incandescent 25 watt lightbulb, and that size sounds about right. I can go home and measure it tonight and get back with you. Karen

We put large globe shaped 110W bulbs in them because we liked the look. They could take LEDs or compact fluorescent, but the bulb might be way up in the neck. If i were using a small bulb i would probably use an extension to get it down to the edge of the shade. They are nice shades.

Used as a new install in a place without power so not sure about size. I do love the lights and plan on getting more. Its a good buy.

I use the Marineland plant light on a 18X18X18 cube with great success. I started with two to be sure of adequate light for the plants but two produced excessive algae so I stored one and use one.

No, I think you need 2 I have a 90 gallon 48x18x24. The lights are only about 3 inches wide So you probably need 1 in the front and 1 in the back. My corals responded immediately to the lighting. I only have soft corals

Sorry I returned this lamp due to shipping damage, but if memory serves me yes you can use a smaller CFL bulb in this fixture equivalent to a 100 watt incandescent. Hope this helps out!

I believe they would work for you. My set is holding a homemade light with eight cfl's and an eight count of florescent tubes.

Go out to their site at http://www.dormgrow.com/ where you will find all the details on their lights. I have a 450 and it was good for two folding tables side by side. Next year I plan to create a wrap around for the tables so the light can bounce off and provide better coverage. The lights also have little fans to promote better grow conditions.

I have some light fixtures that are 23 inches, and use a 18 inch bulb. You need to measure the bulb itself, including the little prongs on each end.

This light will screw into a standard size light socket. But, it is a grow light for growing plants indoors. It's really, really bright. The ballast and the bulb are quite a bit bigger than a standard compact flourescent light and the ballast gets pretty hot. Hope this helps.
