Default Mega ray

Hi guys

Looking for a reliable seller of mega ray bulbs, have had a lot of problems with current seller in terms of delays in processing and dispatching, was told initally 5 days this has now turned into 12 days and counting!

not to bad you might say but when using a supplier who gets my custom and hard earned cash I like to know you get dealt with quicker than that.

any dealers please pm me

Hi Neil there are problems with getting one of those that works well at the moment. I ordered a 160Watt as those were thought to be better than the 120Watt but the one that turned up was very poor indeed and I had to send it back.

A lot of us on here are fed up with the whole thing.

The company that supplies a lot of them is the UK agent for MegaRay and I don't know if you would get better service from another supplier at the present time.

I think if I had to get one right now I would probably go for the cheap option of Solarglo and replace at 6 months and hopefully by then the mega rays will have got their act together. I've had 2 of the Solarglos and they have been no worse than the mega rays

I had been waiting since beginning of Feb for this one, I sent roughly 30 emails asking about this bulb. Was a nightmare! This bulb seems ok but then so did the others, which then started to play up. Email him if your waiting. If this one goes then I wont be staying with MegaRay! Good luck with your bulb
