cos in tanning u neeed "Intense focus" which is the geiss to the effectiveness of light on color

the arcadia one I saw too...nice to look at, good to touch, but too nice cannot do work one

the light too dispersed liao and spacing of the tubes are too close to one another with basic loss of intensity in the space between them

tats my personal observation let me show u a sample of something stronger: (pix taken off DELIGHTING webbie)

walan celebrating Deepavali is it??

u ask him the tubes how many watts?

usually 4ft is 54W...5ft maybe is the 80 W fellas

cannot be so cheap mah

eballast + 2 tubes basic costs already close to 100+
