    At work we use 220 volt 400 watt mh lights at work and all the old bulbs just get thrown in the trash. I have talked with our operations manager and he insists that there is no way to recycle these bulbs in Iowa. I wanted to know who is taking our mh bulb at frag fest and if I can get a hold of them to get these recycled. Thank You , Shaun.

    I am pretty sure we can take them.  I will email Icecap & double check.
    How big are these things?
    Thanks for thinking of the environment, that mercury is bad stuff!

    The bulbs are probably just a little bit bigger rounder ones than we use for our aquariums, just because the voltage is 220 doesn't mean the bulbs are necessarily different.

    I was actually planning on bringing a few of those myself.
