I currently have an ipower 600w ballast, air cooled hood, and MH/HPS lights in a 4x4x6.5' tent. I'm not super happy with light penetration and wanting to go to a reliable 1000w ballast + 1000w Digilux bulb. Will I be able to just purchase a 1000w ballast and use it with the same hood? Is there anything I need to change for them to be compatible? Heat isn't an issue as winter is coming (). I just pulled one of six plants and it only yielded a little over 2.5oz. Not terrible, but there is always room for improvement. 600w at 16 sq ft is 37.5w/ft whereas 1000w is 62.5w/ft which is a huge difference.
