400W HPS Ballast Kit Quad Tap - High Pressure Sodium Ballasts

it seems kinda cheap compared to other 400 watt hps kits i have seen

also, can i start growing under compacts and switch lights as soon as a switch to 12/12

i'm just scared that a big switch like that will put the plants in shock going from 4 or 5 cfls to a huge light like this

It's not a complete kit. It's just the balast kit....

thanks a lot guys
i will buy that complete kit

should i be nervous buying it with credit card though? I heard the American Nazis/DEA sometimes look into people buying those type of lighting systems.

no, but i noticed they take money order

that should work, but then it's the issue of having that delivered to my home address, but i could possibly have it delivered to my cousins house if that is necessary

does he know your growing or are going to..The less people that know the better...If he knows or you are 100% sure you can trust him then thats a good idea...You can pay for it and send it to my house

no, he doesn't know

i may just have to send it to my house

how big a risk is this?

do they have to turn over info on who buys these systems?
