Re: [GSAS-Member] Anywhere in town to buy CF bulbs?

[Matt Staroscik <matt@wrongcrowd.com>]

Looks like I can wait after all... It's not bulbs, it's the fixture that's
gone out. I was hoping that both bulbs dying at once was just a
coincidence... I should have known better.I'm assuming the ballast has died
but I can't be sure until I take it apart and poke around with a meter.

So, the next question is where to buy parts? AHSupply has those kits, maybe
he'd sell just a ballast too. Any other ideas?

It's an All-Glass Aquarium fixture. I can't find a web site for them which
probably means there is no lifetime warranty to cash in on. How can a
company with so many products on the shelves have such a well hidden web
site? I can't figure out if there is a parent company, or what... But it's
about 7 years old and I doubt it is under any kind of warranty coverage
still. So, time for surgery.
