Why I like LEDs on top of other lighting tech?
LEDs = Upgrade 95% of the applications. (That is if you avoid eBay's LEDs).


LED brainwash? No, people uses them cuz they work well for them.

Waaaaaaaaaaay back in the day, i was able to get a few cases of Sylvania F32T12s for very very cheap.  It was great.  I haven't purchased from them since.

It's legit, but the shipping prices are often quite high. (it was like $10 to ship a mogul base 70w metal halide). If you order, I would advise you add more to the order (such as some LED or CFL bulbs) to make the price more worth it.

I 2nd this, prices are good, but the other day I went to buy a lightswitch and shipping was ~$12, which is stupid expensive. However they have a fairly complete and well laid out site that usually has lotsa details on all the lamps. I frequently use them when researching lamps or ballasts because of this.

Perhaps it is expensive Because they package their stuff real well? I've never personally bought anything off them but I'd imagine that'd being possibly the case...

I got a 330w MH lamp and a bunch of dimmer switches for a job from them once and they were pack well.

I highly recommend them but I always get loads of stuff each order so I have never had problems with overpriced shipping.

I've ordered from them quite a bit. Definitely order a lot at a time so the shipping doesn't kill you.

I like my lamps thick, my ballasts heavy, and my fixtures tough.

They are a reputable website from what I can tell.  My only problem is that you don't see the pictures of the actual bulbs you will receive.  They might be a totally different manufacturer and/or country of origin from what is pictured.  I like to know exactly what I'll receive before buying.

I love there new description write up's like this one https://www.1000bulbs.com/product/57542/BA-LI533H4IC.html

CEB1993, they might not give you a picture of the bulb your going to get, but they do give you the manufacture and model number of the one they are shipping you, and if they ship something else they will make it right according to there website

Ebay is my spot... lol... because Ebay actually shows the product you want to buy from the picture
the seller takes.
I've found some very, very rare ballasts on Ebay. And all of my HPF trigger start desk lamps, are from Ebay
and Etsy. Mainly Ebay.
All of those trigger start ballasts, however, are from Ebay.
I've got ten more of them that I don't use, that I want to sell.
