MH lights and a custom canopy

[blitz99]

where do you mount the lights and the ballast? i understand the ballast shouldnt be mounted inside the canopy, but if not inside, where?

Either put it in your stand or somewhere else out of the way. It will generate heat so make sure if you put it in your stand, it isn't touching anything and air has a place to escape or it will heat the tank from the bottom.

I just built my own canopy. I have 2 VHOs in it . I mounted the ballast on the back of the canopy.
