Here's a link I have bookmarked and use constantly:

Online Conversion

It converts "everything"! Easy too. Just open it in a new tab when you need it and your set!

ok, here they are..damn that light is bright! feels like the damn sun is in my grow tent! haha. anyways, temps are staying great right now, right at 75 or so, and its been on for over an hour. If you look at the 3rd pic, theres a little black box resting on the buckets. Well thats the thermostat. I have the dial on it set to 75, which basically means that when the room reaches 75 degrees, it kicks on the exaust fan that sucks the heat from the reflector, and out into the attic. pretty cool, actually, and it works great.

oh yeah, and Ive got two more t5 strips that i will be strategically placing in there for side lighting, but I think im gonna wait till they start to get a little more height..i dont know, what do you guys think?

The new light looks good in there, and if you can keep it at 75 degrees, you're doing great. With a 1000 watter I can't imagine that you'll need more light, but getting those T5s in there to add a little different spectrum would be OK. I'd definitely wait and see how things go for a while before making any more changes. Give the plants a little time to show how they're liking the new environment.
