Default Reliable light set ?

Hi don't know if I am in the right section of the forum. If I m not , mod please forgive and redirect me thx.

Anyways my aquazonic 2 tube t5 jus failed me.
One switch not working, tube workin fine. Went to read online, apparently it's quite a common problem in this brand.

I would like to ask bros out there if they had tried other brands and think that it's worth the money please advise... Wouldn't wanna buy another unreliable light and waste $.

If you want can modify the existing lightset and use LED tubes instead. I'm currently using LED light tubes bought from the shop next to AMK Courts for one year plus. Still working well and no issues at all. Cost is about $20 per tube.

How long you've been using the light set? Mine already a year plus still working fine.

Depend on your need & budget, there are plenty of good and reliable brand out there. DE lighting, SoLite, ADA, maxspect. Giesemann, just to name a few...

What's the length and power of the light tube?

If u like DIY maybe bring the switch to Sim Lim Tower search for compatible switch.
