    According to the specs:

    "2x 55w 50/50 10,000k & Actinic T5 Power compact lamps."

    Like 2in10 said that's really power compact, not T5 or even T5HO lights.

    Ok thanks. I will look into getting the other bulbs, but I think I am just going to replace the current ones with the same type because my growth/color is good with the current ones I am using.
    Thanks again, I amdefinately going to replace them because it has been 9 months

    I'd just take the canopy off and put in an AI?

    It would not be that easy. You cant just take it off in an RSM it is, in a way, connected
