Been working on re-arranging the basement after the seismic work, will take me couple years (at least). New shelves will be put in so I can have better use of the space and then sort what I have to keep, what I want to keep and what I must definitely NOT keep...
Found a PC fixture, two 55W bulbs that still rock, has two moonlights built in and I came across a reflector; spare one for a Tek fixture that is buried in there so what the heck. Cut the Aluminum to size to then squeeze it in the fixture so I can add four T5 lamps (24")
I just need to figure if the current ballasts can be used to power each, a pair of lamps; each ballast is a 55W unit so it should but need to figure the wiring first to make sure.
At one point in the life of the fixture I had in mind to gut it and place two DIY DE-MH reflectors for 150W bulbs but that never happened...
So here's the progress so far
