Cheap 150w Mh!!!

[ffmike]

I just bought 2x175W SE metal halide ballasts with spider reflectors and new 20K bulbs ready to plug in on E--Y for less than $200 shipped to my door and the seller says he can make hundreds. I installed them last night and everything worked fine. The bulbs are cheap ones so I think they will not last long but have a good spectrum for now. I will let you know how it goes.

I guess you can't say the E word!!!

Does the seller have a site? Can you PM it to me? What size tank do you have them on?
Sorry so many?????

Its a 75gal. If any one else has any q's about them let me know. I think this is a really good alternative to paying a huge amount of money for commercially made lights. We'll see!!

Looks like they are selling pretty good stuff and cheap. Ballast are by Sylvania. Added to fav sellers in case I might need something. Thanks for the hook up

I'd like to see a closeup or a scan of the label on that ballast!

 

[ffmike]

As soon as I can I will post a pic of the label. I think the guy just put the sticker from the actual ballast which is inside the rubber material on the outside box.
