Decisions, decisions…

That’s pretty cool that your sister has an OD setup. So since your sister has the one WH5 ballast connected to 2 T12 bulbs at around 50W each bulb, and you have the F32T8 OD each T12 bulbs 2x, what setup would you say is more effective?

Have you ever experimented with one WH5 on one T12 bulb?

BTW, I read your post on PAR and Lumens. Interesting stuff. Not quite sure if I understood everything, but any questions I have toward that, I’ll reply to that thread.

Thanks.
