What type of light do I have?

Gordonious · 11/14/2006, 10:42 PM

About a month ago I was handed a used light from a very nice member of my local reef club. I would like to try to get it working and set up, but I need to find out what bulb to use for it. I think it may be 20" AQUALIGHT - SINGLE LINEAR STRIP. I believe the dimensions are the same and I found the number 530000306 printed on the inside.

If this is the case would I use the 96W 17" bulbs listed on the pdf manual? (54068, 54078, or 54098)

The fixture was a bit damp when I get it and I believe it had been sitting for a while. I cleaned the outside pretty well, but wasn't sure if maybe I should open it up and look inside.

Yes, yes

Are these the sort of lights I should be looking at?

Obviously hellolights would be the better choice price wise, but all of these would work right? I am guessing that what I am looking for is 17" 96W quad pin CF bulbs?

Dont know jon, that first strip light link says its just a 28 watt ballast . is it the square pin end cap in the light, and a 28 watt ballast or the 96 or some other ? it should say somewhere the wattage.

Here is what the ballast says inside the fixture:

Incase that image does not load or is not legible this is what it says:

36/40 1GY1156B
115V 60Hz 0.8A
48W 53% V2 200V

There is about 18.5" worth of space inside of the fixture. And I believe it is a square four pin connection. Looking like this:

I am going to That pet place tomorrow and I am hoping to pick something up when I am there.

What does everyeone think of a Sunpaq 23w Dual daylight sunpaq Model 2021? I bought one yesterday. It is square pin and fits in the fixture easily.
