Does anyone know how wide a 55w pl-l is? The ones I have been looking at are ~21" long but no specification on the width. I'd like to be able to fit two in a 22(l)x9(w)x20(h) PC case if possible.
I'd say 2" MAX at the widest part of the base. That measurement will allow for some margin of error.
Without putting a ruler on a burning lamp i'd say you probably have plenty of room for two 55w lamps.
If you're going to use a reflector/s (which is a great idea), you should still have enough room inside of your 9" dimension. My (lame) MIRO reflectors are 4" wide, so you could still fit two in there no problem. Depends on your setup & materials.
Where's a good spot to get pl-l lamps & fixtures? Been looking for a few months @ "your favorite home store" with no luck.
You'll have to go to one of the commercial lighting stores to find them... Though I have seen some of the 9/13w's at home depot and the like...Where's a good spot to get pl-l lamps & fixtures? Been looking for a few months @ "your favorite home store" with no luck.
