My friend made a homemade remote ballast and he is concerned if the transformer from an older outdoor security light (150 watt hps) melt plastic or start a fire. The ballast, ignightor and capacitor were placed in a project box purchased from radio shack. It is made out of plastic. Does anyone know that has made one before?
Here is a link to the exact project box.
