I have a 30" coralife pc that has two 65 watt bulbs...it just gave out on me and i'm not sure it is the bulbs...how can I tell if it is the light fixture or if it is the bulbs without buying new bulbs?

I don’t know of any other way. I had a CF ballast go out on my Nano Cube. The only way I was able to tell was take some good bulbs from another fixture and go back and fourth. I have 2 spare bulbs that I would lend you but I live in Corpus Christi. Maybe some one else will let you borrow one of their spares.

Oh and specify if they are STRAIGHT or SQUARE PIN. -David

Maybe if you take it by a LFS they can try out some bulbs to see if it works. I always used to do it for customers. If not they will have the fixtures model number there with you to order the part you need or check for it in stock.
