The standard T5 lamp was developed in Europe several years ago, and then introduced to the North American market in 1996. In 1998 t5 HO was introduced in North America. It offers about twice the lumen output in the same length.

Can you upgrade to T5 fluorescent bulbs but not replace the fixture?

Since T5 bulbs are shorter than their T12 or T8 counterparts, they do not naturally fit into fixtures designed for T12 or T8 bulbs. Luckily, there are companies that offer retrofit kits that can allow you to use T5 bulbs in fixtures not designed for them. A company called Lumiversal makes two different types of these retrofits. These retrofits are a great way to save money and electricity plus you can rebates and incentives from your utility providers to help cover the cost.

Are t5 lights good to use on a reef tank?

The simple answer is yes, but it really depends. What type of corals do you plan to keep? Will you be only stocking softies, or will it include some LPS and SPS species? The tank dimensions, depth, bulb density, and bulb color also have an effect. I would suggest reviewing some of the numerous reef forums to learn more. Also, make sure that they are HO T5 and not NO T5; only the HO T5 bulbs have the intensity to maintain corals.


How can you adjust your low beam head lights on a 2006 Volvo S40 T5?

I found that my lights were pointed very low on my T5. when i took apart the projector lens i saw there is a piece of metal blocking the beam from pointing higher. I just bent this beam away from the lens a bit to allow light to be projected upward more. they are very bright now. the question is... how legal?
