Report on the ghetto blaster

..............I am also about to try another alternative, a 65 watt compact
fluorescent that comes as a unit with a very good looking built in
reflector for lighting the outside of your house. I got it at Home Depot
for $29.00. I plan to set it on a tank and put a box over it. The
manufacturer, Lights of America (if I recall correctly) says it puts out
6,800 lumens. That's a real ghetto blaster of a light.
I have tried it, and it is not much of a ghetto blaster. In fact, it is
pretty wimpy. I would not reccomend it for lighting tanks. There are much
better alternatives.
