    Hortilux bulb wattage

    Where on the bulb is the wattage found? I bought a 1000w bulb w/out box and wanted to double-check the wattage before firing it up. I looked at the base of the bulb but didn't find the wattage anywhere. Wtf.

    True light coverage of a hid light

    So air cooled reflectors and the bulbs in them are placed elongated so my question is isnt the light coverage also elongated? Why do people always use a square(ie. 3x3, 5x5) if so? And also what is the actual ratio of coverage on a air cooled reflector?
