Hey all!
I picked up a hps security light for cheap the other day i took it home gutted it an wired everything up. It turns on fine an is pretty damn bright. an used a shop light casing as a reflector, just cut 6inches off a broken shop light case an grinded the rough side smooth. An using a flexible peace of metal i bolted the light fixture onto the reflector. An what im wondering is what do i hook the ground wire too? I figured it was the reflector but im not 100% on that, an i dont want to burn my place down because i was being an idiot! But anyways for 20$ i got a 150hps light, for about the same price id pay to hook up on a new batch of CFL. If the post isnt in the right forums feel free to move it. hope i made sense
Peace
Bob
