I've been researching light for first grow.
A HPS setup seems the ticket. Because its not a full height basement, I want to use 4x250Watt HPS and am wondering if I can use a single ballast kit. The ballast kit im looking at is:

With bulbs sockets, and wire, this should be 1000Watts for less than $200, and about 100K lumens.
Anyone know more cost effective ballast?
