the bulbs are two inches from the closest anything and that anything get's nothing more than slightly 'warm', though the room is now hotter, which is my next issue i will need to 'plug in' to solve

I had the t5's and up to 18 cfls in this piece. Three plug in cords leading to 3 separate junction boxes. Powering t5's separate from cfls which are drawn from 2 separate boxes aswell.. Total of 380 watts from the wall. Too much. Do I invested in some LEDs. More penetration and half the watts
