I am looking at purchasing some high bay HPS lights. The owner says they will work with either 220/ or 110. Currently they are wired for 220. Does anyone have any info on how to rewire these? or create a remote ballast system. He wants to sell me (3) 400 watt HPS lamps with bulbs for $200. I know I can get a brand new digital ballast 400watt with reflector for 200?? anyone think this is a good deal? Or any thoughts on how to make a remote ballast or if these are even usable. Thanks RIU, I love you guys

wait, so he is going to sell you three 400w hps ballast, reflector, everything for 200?? thats a deal, but dont you think thats a little much for you starting off? that's 1200w, I mean you are use to growing under floros. If you can, and you have the room for a set up like that, more power to you, go for it! That's a hell of a deal, that I dont think I could pass up. Not sure about the conversion, should be as simple as getting a 110 plug and wiring it in, then flipping a switch from 220 to 110. That or you could just plug it in to your clothes dryer socket.

Yeah this is more for planning for the future. I plan to finish these with the flouros, or maybe toss 1 of them on my scrog now. But he wants to get rid of all 3 together, so i figure I would grab all three...Thinking maybe 3 seperate 4x4rooms run in a row like this [++++] [++++] [++++]. That way I could control each room independently and maybe run a perpetual grow. I have about 120 sq. ft room in my basement next to my electrical panel. This would give me plenty of options.... I know its a big jump, but they would be nice to have around. Thanks for the post bro!! glad to have you on board

So after my long rant and rave about flouros and even canopies.. I find myself in a position to acquire a bunch of HID gear from a new friend for a pretty good trade. So..... it looks like I could be switching to the brighter side of things... Anyway, anybody have any advice for modding these to make remote ballast and change reflector? Does it even need to be modded? I plan on leaving it on 220 since I have easy access to my panel and was told it will draw less power through 220 than 110.. any feedback on whether to switch to HID? I am less than a week into flower

Just read through (someguy)'s journal.. very impressive. If anyone want to see HID matched against flouros side by side his journal shows it all. It also plays on the fact that HID is stronger right below the bulb and dissipates greatly in the corners of a room. Anyone interested in SCROGs and HID vs. Flourescent should check it out. All this great information just makes you think about how you wanna try your next grow. I love this place!!!! Rock on everyone

Hmmmm interesting! Thanks for the heads up . Sounds worthy of taking a peek. Thx for the info.... Got a link? If not , I'll go Ahead and search it out
