*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** I'm in the process of setting up a slide viewing/sorting center in my studio. I've set up a large table with files on either end, 2 recessed projectors, romm light controls, etc. I'm putting in a 2' x 4' flourescent fixture in the table top as well as a 2' x 4' slanted fixture (with rails) above it for sorting. I would like to put 5k bulbs in the fixtures, but I need the following info; - Where do I buy them? - do they require special ballasts and/or sockets? - do they come in standard lengths? - does anyone have any info about them I should know? (short bulb life, too costly to consider, etc.) Please mail or post you responses to; Jon Rose St. Joseph's University {allegra|astrovax|bpa|burdvax}!sjuvax!rose

I don't know what their color temperature is, but I have been very happy with Vita-lites Power Twists. Slides taken under these bulbs are very natural. I use them for lighting my aquariums. You can get them from any specialty lighting store. You can also get them from certain health food stores. -- ---------------- Marty Sasaki uucp: harvard!sasaki Harvard University Science Center arpa: sasaki@harvard.harvard.edu One Oxford Street phone: 617-495-1270 Cambridge, MA 02138
