    What exactly are you looking for and how much are you looking to spend?
    So many things can be a mystery, when all we're seeking is freedom...

        I think Wal-Mart has them for cheaper than that.

          yeah, rico the ones for $10 at home depot HAVE TO BE HUNG FROM THE CEILING!
          i work there i know this for a fact, not to mention i bought one and found out the hard way.
          the reason they have to be ceiling mounted is because the reflecter doesnt complety cove and overhang the bulbs.

          the ones from walmart come with a on/off switch, which the home depot one doesnt.
          and they can be placed right ontop of the tank.
          they are only $14.88.
          i know this because i also bought one from walmart.:)

            the 8ft shoplights with the reflectors are gunna run you around $75-100+.
            and you have to install the powercord and ground wire yourself, again i no these things because i work at Home Depot.

            btw, any shoplight you are going to hang, MUST BE SCREWED DIRECTLY INTO A STUD WITH EACH SCREW!

            otherwise it will just come crashing down and bring alot of sheetrock with it.

              Thats incorrect, you can use butterfly nuts, Drywall anchors or similar such devices and they will support the weight of a shoplight no problem.

              Rico, I have maybe 6 shoplights that were bought about 6 months ago, $30 for the 6. Only problem is that I live in Willis, 34 Miles north of Beltway 8. I can meet you during the week at beltway 8/ I45 north.
