    Default Lighting ordered...

    OK, ordered the new lighting... 2-175 watt 10k XM halides, 2-65 watt act 03 pc's, and 2 65 watt 10k pc's. I found a wholeseller in our local club, so got everything at wholesale (same supplier as Hellolight uses). After looking up the same lighting at Hellolights.com, the price diff is amazing. They should be here on the first or second of Nov. :-D ... Just had to gloat.
