Brand of T5 to buy?

[High]

I'm looking to get a T5 for my 2x4 mother and clone tent. What brand/model do you recommend? I see a lot of them, but when I look at the reviews a lot of people talk about how quickly they fail. I'd like to not have to purchase a whole new light every year.

i will say only issue i have is sometimes a switch will not want to turn off, just wont "click". solved that by just tapping the switch a lil harder and she goes off. its random, switches locations too?

I would not buy "BadBoy".
You will need to buy more bulbs. They wear down(lost of lumens) over time.
