Lighting Cheap DIY CFL Fixture

[MD to NC]

Here's a few pics of the light fixture I made. All the parts were from lowes/walmart, cost under $20 not including the lights. Gonna roll with 6x26w daylights for veg and hopefully 400w for flower if i can control the heat. Peace

nice fixture. I made mine with a flat reflector due to height restriction's but had to remove it due to heat issues

is that just a regular bathroom vanity?

also what did you use for the reflector?

I made one simmilar but I used a light fixture from a ceiling fan. It had a 5 light fixture but with splitters I now have 10 - 23 w. 10,000+ lumens in a 2x2 area...

I made mine from Walmart parts too! I used a 10 outlet power strip and used the plug in style light sockets and screw in y splitters. 26w cfl's alternating daylight and warm white. I got 100g of bud from 3 plants in soil. First ever grow.
