smartfood Well-Known Member Mar 1, 2008 #2 No it'll need a 150watt ballast. The floodlight probably had one built in. You can try it but i'm almost positive it won't light up.

chunkymunkey33 Well-Known Member Mar 1, 2008 #4 There are, but even with a 75 watt HPS I'm pretty sure you still need a HPS specific fixture.
