Judy,

A case is 12 bulbs isn't it? One of my units uses 10 and the other one 8,
but I'm soon going to redesign that one for 10 or 12. If you don't need that
many bulbs maybe find someone to split a case with.

When I built my smaller unit about 6 years ago, the 24 inch F20T12/AQA bulbs
cost $17.50 each. The 48 inch F40T12/AQA bulbs that I bought a month ago
cost $15 each. That is about the same as the BLs that I got at Home Depot
about 4 years ago (which they no longer stock BTW).

Cheerios,
Keith
