Hi Guys

Im a newb...

I unpacked my cfl lamp etc yesterday, and noticed it has little plastic cylinders no bigger than the nail on your pinkie finger in length. They are glued on between each bulb holding them together at the bottom.... is this just for safe transportation or should I keep them on?

Also I got a tent at the same time, I have some black pullies to hang the lights from, but for one I dont think I need them because the cfl lamp is vertically hanging from its lead, and I cant see how I would fit them to it. I was planning on just using them when I buy a hps next month (keeping costs manageable by buying what I need as i go along)

I hope this makes to sense to you guys, any feedback/thoughts etc would be appreciated!

Thanks​

I have attached a quick pic, sorry about the quality but you get the idea. Have you ever come across this?

Thanks for replying.

Thanks for that, yes you have also hanged the lights the same way... a bit of relief for me, i was wondering if that was correct or not. I dont know about you but i was shocked at the size of the lights when they arrived! :-)

So did you keep the plastic cylinders on or not?
