Ultraviolet lamp. Rated 175w BC fitting. Gets VERY hot and does not give off as much light as a tube but hey, its free!.

PM sent.

I have not received one.

erm... mmm.. I fired one off to you about 4.20pm. Basically, it said Yes please - if you can post it off in a padded tin or secure box. Obviously, I'll pay for the p&p. If that's OK I'll try and PM you again with details.

Cheers,
Mike.

Have you got PM No.2? Sent 1832hrs yesterday.

You can get them from Amazon for £1.50ish + p+p clicky

Is there anything Amazon DOESN'T sell now ?? Brilliant. Thanks for that Colgo. That's pretty cheap. I might go down that avenue if Kevin doesn't get back to me. The 1st PM did a black hole job I think ! ha.ha. Cheers.

It's just been pointed out to me (thanks Chris) that these so-called blacklight lamps on sale via Amazon ARE NOT blacklight UV lamps ! Also what you get is not what is described.

Take a look at the comments sent in by folk who have made the mistake of buying these lamps.

I didn't really want one anyway. na.na.na.nah.nah. ! Stomp/sulk !

you can get uv cfl (energy saver type) lamps from about £12,bc and es fitting and they are proper blacklight lamps. I have a couple of them.

Thanks Kevin.

Can you use it for hydroponics?

You could but it would be a lot cheaper to run and a lot more effective buying a light source made for the purpose.

This has gone by the way. Please lock the thread someone.
