Re: [APD] lighting on the cheap
Another reason for using AH Supply kits is their superb customer
service. I had one of their bulbs break a few months after I got it -
popped and went out when I closed the canopy. I ordered a replacement
and they sent it free of charge. Others have reported even better
service from them.
