WTB: 36inch T5 retro kit.

Anyone have a retro kit < 1 year old. Would prefer a Tek T5 kit.

Thanks, Adam

I have the end caps, wiring, and the ballast for a 36" T5 Tek, 2-bulb unit.

It still has bulbs and works fine, the bulbs have been used for about 6 months for about 6-7 hrs a day, maybe 6 days a week. There is a 12K white and an actinic.

No reflectors I assume? And I don't need the bulbs. How much would you want for it.

I have a 24" reflector with a SE mogul socket, it is in my gallery. I think I have a DIY ballast for MH too.

Don't need the MH stuff, UNFORTUNATELY, I'm going T5s for a while on my 65 gallon because of heat issues...no room/money for a chiller.
