If you have the ventilation, I would definitely opt for HID. An air cooled hood/cooltube and decent fan should control the heat just fine.

150w HPS will give you great results and a cheap energy bill. I can vouch for that. However, with good venting and some pruning, you could probably pull of a 400 watt. Just don't think it would be worth it though in that tent.

Any hydro shop will have what you need.

pchydro.com

That's where I get everything I need, the address is on the site. For lights though, I'd hit up craigslist.org before I did anything else. Get that DEAL BABY!
