Cool Lighting-question
I have a question about ballast convertion i was hoping to get help with I was wondering if anyone had converted metal halid ballast to HPS. I have both and it looks like its something that can be done easy. But not sure worried about trying

ANY HELP OR SUGGESTION ON WHERE TO GET THIS INFO WOULD BE GREAT

maybe You Could Look Into A Conversion Bulb, Instead On Messing With The Ballast's, Here Are Some Example's. HID Hut Bulbs - Hydroponics | HIDHut Discount Hydroponics Supplies and Equipment

Are You Going To Keep It Like That Or Keep Changing Back In Fourth? If Your Set On Changing It, Maybe You Need To Go To The Manufacture Of Your Ballast Web. Site, & See How They Convert It?,, I Think It Would Make Thing's Alot Simpler, Safer & Easier Just To Change The Bulb.
