:cry:Hey Guys,
I'm in a bit of a quandary.
I have (had) a Current Outer Orbit MH fixture. It had 150 w 14k bulbs in it with actinics.
Last night, my DH smelled something burning. It seems it was on of the actinic light portions. I immediately unplugged the fixture and have not had it back on since.
Problem is, I have alot of SPS and need my lights.
Do you think I should just buy another fixture, or should I try to get that one repaired. I guess I should say that I am not 100% sure that the smell was coming from the light, but I THINK that it was. I didn't see any smoke or a fire. The actinics had been on earlier in the night and all of a sudden the light was off and there was a burning odor.
Thoughts? If you think I should get another fixture, what do you suggest.
The Outer Orbit was a bit cumbersome to use because the legs on it are short and it's hard to get your arm in the tank around it.
Thanks!

. Check the bulbs and if they have receptacles to slide into, that isn't your problem
