Yes, so many types it's not only expensive, but confusing! You have halide and sodium lights too. I have a VHO t-5 4 foot, 4 bulb fixture. I don't like it. it is super bright, but is very hot! I run a fan. VHO bulbs have to be used, you cannot use HO bulbs. vho=very high output.
It looks and feels like the sun is in the room!
I have a 4 foot 2 bulb t-8 shop light and a 2 foot 2 bulb T=5 plant light, great for seedlings.
Here's what I have
