I am wondering how long URI 110w VHO bulbs are good for.
I have heard several different views on this. Every 6 months seems to be the one I hear the most, also have been told once a year and also heard that you do need to replace untill they burn themselves out. ------------- 90 Gallon, 2 175watt MH, 4 110watt super atinic VHO's, Mag 950 return pump with sqwuid. |

Check http://www.hellolights.com/ - http://www.hellolights.com/ I checked there for the URI 46 1/2" 110 watt Super Actinic and they claim 2500 hours. Mike -------------  |

I change my VHO bulbs every 14 months. I tried to push the last set to 18 months, but they were hammered by then. I would go 12 months if I wasn't so cheap.
