Mine were 3 months old when the bulbs started blowing.Theres a gtreat thread on lumitecks over on thc farmer about the lumitecks and their problems.The owner of lumiteck tells you not to burn eyes and that their not compatible.My hydro store is swearing by these new bulbs and they are a little cheaper than eyes with the same spectrum.That thread over at the farm says it all...............Peace

I've been using a 1000w lumitek for two months now and haven't had any problems? I ran a cheap MH for the first month and a ushio HPS for the other.....
