I'm sure we've all had different experiences, so I'll post mine.
I've used the cheap 48" Home Depot and Lowes fixtures for some time. The first one I bought over 6 years ago, and it's still running, 12 hours a day, every day, never had a problem. Others I've had for 3-4 years, never had a problem. I have use d2 reptisuns, or 1 reptisun and a day light bulb in each.
I paid $7.99 for each one.
Now, they are cheap pieces of disposable garbage compared to "real" shoplights, with replacable ballasts. they bend and flex if moved, they don't hold the bulbs in well.
But They work for me - I've got 6 of them total.
