Do the math: (Electricity costs are estimates. Your rates may vary
based on your location)

175w MH RetroFit Kit - $209.00
175w MH Bulb Replacement @ 9months - $65.00
Electricity to run the MH Light - $8.67/month = $104.00/year
First year of New 175w MH Lighting = $378.00
Each additional year = $169.00
5 year total with one 175w MH Lamp = $1054.00

If you have to run a chiller be sure to add the following:
Chiller (because of the heat caused by MH lighting) - $350.00
Electricity to run the chiller - $50/month = $600.00 per year


AquariumLED Lamp
