Coralife Turbo-Twist UV

[Home_Depot]

I had a 18w Coralife Turbo-Twist UV gave to me today but the cord had fallen into water so it was cut off and I guess they have a built in ballast on them?? Does anyone know were I could find a new cord? The bulb and sleeve are good just needs a new cord?


Thanks for your time!

So how would I make one? can I get a ballast that would be for a 18w bulb or should I try and find one somewere??

18 watt power compacts are all the same electrically. 18w 10k, 18w Actinic, 18w UV. They all draw the same current.

Can I have your red safety clip from your Turbo Twist? Mine is gone and now water shoots out of the hole. I sent an e-mail to their website and heard NADA back from them.
