Custom built fixture for 4 Ray's LED bulbs
Default Custom built fixture for 4 Ray's LED bulbs

I built a custom fixture for 4 of Ray's LED bulbs. There are two in the middle segment and one on each lateral segment. This is just to supplement the natural light over the winter, and I can move plants around to give them some time in the spotlight as needed since the whole space isn't equally lit. I will soon paint the PVC silver. I wanted to do this with steel pipe, but when I was putting it together in home depot I realized that steel pipe was going to cost quite a lot more than PVC. I think the parts for the fixture ran me $65 in total.

Looks good. I like the idea of PVC better as it wouldn't be as heavy as the steel pipe.
