Long story short, I'm working on a 60" retro T5 build and I went with 2 36" reflectors to make the 60"(Aquactinics) and my question is this.... I was told to use pop rivots to join the 2 reflectors in the middle but I want to prevent sagging, can I join the reflectors with a lamp clip and use that to prevent the sagging? I know you want to avoid things touching the bulb to prevent hot spots and potential bulb issues but is this the case as well with lamp clips? They are touching the bulbs on the ends the aren't they?;)


Thanks for the input!
