[Spridgets] Eight foot fluorescent lights

[Larry Daniels]

Remember that 4 foot bulbs normally put out 40 watts, but 8 foot HO bulbs 
put out 96 watts, so you will get more light from an 8 footer than from 2 - 
4 footers.

I have  not checked recently but a few years ago you could buy twelve
four footers for less money than four eight footers.  So I put in a
lot of four footers and the fixtures cost less.  Has that changed?
