Review
This particular T5 fixture is a High Output (HO) fixture, meaning that it is efficient at giving out light that is bright and powerful, yet it won’t consume a lot of watts meaning that you will be able to save on your electricity. The fixture will consume only 216 watts – 54 watts for each of the 4 feet light bulbs – and in return the lumen output will be 20,000 lumens. Moreover the fixture is suitable for many different conditions and locations because it is easy to install it and it can withhold even damp and cold locations. And there is a hanging kit that comes with the fixture and consists of a V-clip and chain for easy mounting and removal so that you can assemble the fixture and use as soon as you receive it.

And there is 5 year warranty on the ballast of the light.
