I just bot 2 150w hps that advertised can be used vert or horiz and have medium bases. Can i use these in a reg 150w socket. It fits.
I never even knew these lights existed, these are some serious money savers on the electric bill as well:with an hps lamp, you always need a ballast...if you don't want the hassle of using a ballast and dealing with heat, try an induction lamp...50 watt induction lamps are rated to be the equivalent of 150 watt hps. they run cooler and 90% of the light is in the PAR range, as opposed to about 10% with HIDs.
That's why Home Depot always has opened/returned medium base HPS lights on the shelves, lots of returns.I just bot 2 150w hps that advertised can be used vert or horiz and have medium bases. Can i use these in a reg 150w socket. It fits.
