Fluorescent Lights are a Popular Choice for Commercial Lighting and Grow Light Applications


Fluorescent lighting is a very popular choice for both commercial lighting and as grow lights because they are incredibly efficient. So while they may be a little more expensive to initially purchase than incandescent, they make up for the added expense by saving on energy: they use around 80 lumens per watt, which is a big difference from incandescent lights, which often use only 10 to 12 lumens per watt. Better still, fluorescent lighting can have a lifespan of up to 30,000 hours. This number has doubled since only fifteen years ago! Great for seed starting! Or use to grow flowers, herbs and houseplants year round indoors! Use under shelves or over benches. Pre-wired, fully assembled fluorescent fixture features all metal frame construction for years of service.
