Mark, I'm running the 8 bulb ATI dimmables. Just measured them, butted end to end, they are 94" outside to outside. I just turned one of them 180 degrees so that the exhaust comes out each end. The only drawback is that you have to reach across the top of one of them with a mirror to set the time. Other than that, they are awesome. I'd say they are pretty clean looking. And the cords and cables all come out of the top so they flush mount to each other with no problem. I even attached some supplemental blue led strips for a little more blue pop.
Hmm... I like this setup. So you are running the T5 only fixture? The T5/LED combo has the power cord coming out of the end. If I go with that unit and reverse one like you did the two cords would hit each other. What LED strips did you use? I may have to come by one weekend and take a closer look at your setup.
