    Does anyone have real good instructions on how to wire a Reefgeek T5 retro light kit with pictures?

    I got one of these in a trade and its a 48'' double light setup with all wires, ballasts and everything included.

    I just have no clue how to wire these things.

    Any help would be awesome!
    Thanks!

    If you can post pics of the wire leads for the ballasts and end caps, I can figure it out easy enough.

    I think I figured it out, there is a diagram on the ballast so I gave it a shot and it fired up both lights.....:)
