    My Eagle Eye zoa frags are looking amazing.

    The first frag is my newest one. The second one was from one head. The reason It's not as opened is that I haven't installed my second fixture since modding it today.

    I found an adustable height 24"(length), 3 pendent light fixture at Lowe's for $15. I think it's made by Portfolio. I couldn't find it on their website, so I'll have to take a picture of it when I get it.

    I believe the one you are talking about is adjustable by adding or removing the threaded sections of tubes. The only problem is it not realtime adjustable, since the wiring runs through each section. In order to adjust, you have to disconnect the power & remove the wiring. So, it's pretty much one time adjustable.

    Hmm...I thought it had flexible cables, similar to what you have, just not in a track.

    Well I finished my other drop fixture. I'll start another thread under DIY on how I did it.

    Well added some more frags last week that had fallen off my main eagle eye colony. At this rate I need to start getting rid of some.

    I must say, they seem to like the spectrum of these lights very well. The color just pops at you.

    SWEEEEEEET!!!!!

    Sure seems like these lamps kick some serious butt - especially for the price and extreme ease of use/installation!!!!
