Can anyone point me to a good individual bulb reflector for VHO bulbs?

Thanks

I've never heard of an SLR for VHO's. Why not get URI bulbs? Most of them have internal reflectors.

I do use URI with the reflectors, but even so, a fair amount of light escapes into the hood and so is essentially wasted.

I'd not heard of SLR's for VHO bulbs either...was hoping someone else had.

Oh well.

Why not make your own by using T5 reflectors and rivet in some PC clips? PC clips are about 1 1/2" W but could be bent into shape.

You could use those 12''x12'' mirror tiles from Home Depot and install them into the top of your canopy, facing down. Someone on RC has already done this and reported great results... the name escapes me at the moment.

That's cool.

If you think of the name, please be sure to let me know.

Thanks!
