I called them, they said flourescents would be fine, no metal halides.

He said he'd send me a 2'x4' sample for 15 bucks shipped, I gotta see it :)

Bringing this to the meeting... this sheet is amazing. We are talking a mirror on a bendable sheet, incredible.

Now I just need some guidance on what to put it into... rain gutter? PVC pipe cut in half?

How would you all shape the reflector for t-12's?

Something parabolic in shape is ideal.
