i bought a 400w HPS setup, its not top of the line by any means but it worked very well while it was actually coming on. I ran it for about 78 hours total so far, 18/6 light cycle. When i went to plug it back in this morning the bulb never lit up. I took my MH conversion bulb out and put my...

common someone has to know something. I have tried both my HPS and MH bulbs and neither actually start up with light when i plug the system up. Iv let it sit for like 5-10 minutes and nothing any ideas on what it could be? I did notice the ballast isnt making as loud of a humming noise now as...

im currently using a 400w MH conversion bulb on my setup. I just went to turn the light on and the light hasnt come on yet. The inside of the bulb has lit up but then goes back out. I switched the bulb to my HPS bulb and it came on fine. Does this mean my MH conversion bulb has blown? its...

the walls of the closet are block, except for the outside wall of it it is sheet rock. I want to avoid cutting any holes except for maybe in the ceiling of the closet as so its not that easy to notice. I ran the light today in the closet for about 8 hours, with the ballast sitting outside the...

alright i done some research and found that i can get 150w HPS and Metal Halide that will fit a med socket base (regular household socket). What i dont know is 1. do these still have to have a ballast, 2. Are they pretty much the same light output as a mogul base setup, 3. has anyone ever heard...
