Ok..so Im in the market for a 150W HPS lamp...to flower some small clones or w/e..I currently have two options that Ive been looking at!!One is cheap,only 55$(from Econolight.com)..but the other is from an actual hydroponic website,HTG Supply...so which one should I go with?Compare the options..and tell me which one looks better.They give out the same lumens,but is the HTG one better for growing plants?!!You tell me what to buy!!!Thanks!!

If the normal cheap one works get it. I told my buddy that he hould have to spend 60 bux on a hps buld then he found on that was only like 15 bux at a light store and it worked fine.

Can you tell me evevything you know about this light??How did it come packaged,what did it include?Is it good quality?!How hot does it get?Thanks

Came in like two boxes, one inside the other, and there was very little assembly required. Then you plug it in a regular outlet. It is about ten degrees cooler than all the cfls I was using. I keep it about 7 inches or so above my tallest.The ballast can get warm, so don't grab it if its been on like 12 hours...I use an oscillating fan to keep it cool. Comes with directions and a free lighter!

Go cheap bro just make sure its good quality

i bought a 250 hps off of them and cant sya enough good things abou it. Produces good bud and runs pretty cool compared to the 400 mh i have been using. i paid $125 from htg and think thats a great deal. I bought some 100 watt hps on clearance at home depot for less than $20 and they seem to be working prettygood. I only been using these for a few months and never for a full crop cycle.

Good to hear those HTG lights are good quality..so you guys think I should just buy the HTG one?? StonerMCfried:
1.How many plants you think could fit under it?
2.Can I cool it with two fans pointing at the bulb?

CaptPotHead:

1.Please answer all above questions lol...

buy a kit and wire it up yourself.. my 400 watt was only like 55 bucks, so a 150 kit should be like 15$ or something ridiculous.
