After years of using metal halide lights in my greenhouse and purchasing replacement bulbs from the manufacturer of the light I was curious to see if I could possibly purchase the grow light bulb somewhere else for a cheaper price. The original manufacturer of the light charged a high price for the bulbs and an even higher price for shipping and handling. Every time a bulb went out I dreaded having to make the phone call to order a replacement grow light bulb.

I have been very satisfied with the performance of these lights and I really liked their design. I did not want to change or upgrade them. But I did need to find a new solution for the problem I was having with locating replacement bulbs. I had looked at local hardware stores and farming equipment retailers to see if there was a simpler solution to finding the replacement grow light bulb. Unfortunately though, places never had them in the size that I needed. I was beginning to think that the only place that I would ever be able to purchase them from would be the manufacturer of the light. And in that case, I might as well just pay to replace my entire lighting system because it would save me money in the long run.

One of my employees recommended that I expand my search to the internet to see if I could find an online retailer that sold the size and style of grow light bulbs that I needed. I was amazed by the number of light bulb retailers that there were online. I located a company that specialized in carrying a large amount of grow lights and grow lighting replacement bulbs. I could not believe the wide variety of grow lights and the assortment of bulbs that they carried. I found the exact same replacement bulb that I used for my metal halide lights and it was priced for a fraction of what I usually paid for it.

I decided to place an order with this company and order a few extra bulbs to have around for when I needed them. I browsed through their website and saw a number of products that I would be interested in purchasing in the future. I had finally found a place that could supply me with the replacement light bulbs that I needed for a price that I could afford.
