I have like $20 and can only afford one right now. Which one do you guys think would increase the brightness of my picture more? I'm currently using the T15 400 watt bulb and the Ikea napkin holder.

Thanks in advance. smile.gif

go for the pro reflector, thats a pretty solid 20% increase in brightness... precondensers can be tricky, especially if you don't get a heat resistant one or have a really powerful fan

Yeah I was thinkin the same thing, I'm gonna just get both. The order for the condenser already went through so I'm just gonna get the pro reflector next week. Oh btw, does the Ikea napkin holder work better with the ED28 or the T15 bulbs?

[shot in the dark] I'd say the T15. ED28 is very fat and the napkin holder isn't very large.. I imagine a larger bowl would work better [/shot in the dark]

the ikea will work fine with the ed28, thats what I used in my first pj...you have to set it so its basically almost touching the inside of it though..the pro will only work with the t15 though
