You can put in as many as you can squeeze in the casing but you must take care of the heat dissipated.

ahhh.can put so close ah....wanna try last time but afraid the tube too hot n burst...in the end just put 2 in each casing.....

If you use a normal eballast, you will still shorten the life of the tube because it lacks of a warm start function. Each tube cost only $9, its very affordable even to replace them every 4-5months

Just thinking, this might be a good way to maximise the usage of the tube, bec in a proper setup...the tube will probably start to lose it's lumen in 4-5 mths..(even tho it is still lighting up).

Yes, you can DIY.

you need the e-ballast, some single-core wire, reflectors, end caps, 3-pin plug+3wire cable and 2 tubes. Of coz the casing/holder for the tubes.

Think there are several threads here discussing abt the DIY T5 before... just do a search, i think you will find lots of it...
