[califishdude]

can anyoe tell me what i would all neeed if i go to home depot and my own lighting setup for about 250watts or so.

If your Home Depots our like the ones around me...don't waste your time...they pretty much are limited to regular flourescents...and the circuline power compacts...anything bigger is for security and you could get cheaper online.

i went to the sight and wow! they are cheap. thank a lot. if your pretty good about the lights which ones should i get. i was thinking anout the 250 with 12000k bulb. or should i get (2) 175 setups with 12000k but dont i need other lighting too.

How much were they?

 

[califishdude]

for a 400wt with a 12000k bulb its 129 for setup, 99 for bulb and 25 for reflector and 15 for shipping.

 

[gatorcsm]

So 129 for reflector, bulb, and shipping? You already have a ballast? Or was it 129+99+25+15 = 268$ ?
If it's the prior, that's a good deal! It is the Advanced ballast? I've heard the wires on those are a little thin. But no personal experience with them.

it comes with the ballast, bulb( which if u want a smaller bulb you can with a reduced price,) reflector(which is sold seperalty and thats where the 25 came from and you have the choice of the size, and the ballast and the whole retrofit system out the door for 260 ready to install under your hood.
