Aqua Star in Yishun got it.

thanks everybody.

I'd just check out reborn's T5 tubes. Funny thing about reborn's stock was that it's 2ft tubes are only 14watt! I don't really understand. If T5 for 2ft is 14watt I might as well get the normal FL (15watt)... Heat caused also not significant what...

Try Wakai.

Tel: 98304742. Edwin. Selling something like $55+/- . Watt can't remember clearly.

cheers

I got a 2 ft Dymax recently, the tubes indeed indicate 14W... attached is the pic of the whole system dismantled. The ballast is the two black long thingy, dymax's own customise i think. Wanted to change ballast and tubes at first, but now scratch head on where to house an eballast in the housing. Anyone's 2 ft dymax is different?

Hi 35cents,

That what I saw too... 14watts 2ft T5s.

As I had gotten my 2ft T5 for quite some time back, mine's a 20watt.

I was thinking recently to DIY it to use Aquaz 24watt tubes. Still considering my options, cos DIY for an increase in 4 watts per tube doesn't sound attractive enough...

[dr evil]

the only way to place the eballast external and redo the wiring...not very hard to do..

use a 2x24watts eballast, rewire, use a 24watts tubes, and yes....ur done!!

Hi Dr Evil,

Saw your PM. Will contact you again when I'd decided whether to go for the mod or not.... Can you PM me the price of the eballast?

it is not juz the wattage. for equal length tubes, t5-no has the output of a fl tube whereas t5-ho has double that of a fl but the wattage is not double cos it is more efficient.

DIY is the best and easy option! Good effect too!

So is the one I'm having a T5-no or a T5-ho? The white tube is certainly brighter than a 15W FL tube.

Dymax T5s r not HO T5s
