Please recommend enclosed air cooled enclosure for 400watt mh

I've been looking and I'm not sure what will work with my 400watt mh system. I have the bulb and ballast but no reflector. I see there are open reflector systems out there that will work but I wonder if it's possible to use a 400watt mh in a closed enclosure (at least the ones similar to my 600watt hps from Sunlight) as the buld is so much more bigger and rounder. Any recommendations if a enclosed reflector is available for a 400watt mh?

I really would love to get an enclosed system as the current space it is going into is my old flower area and it is already setup for light ventilation which is separate from space ventilation which might not be adequate for an open HID light system.

Tanks braddahz and sistahz!!

You can get one ordered online or from a local hydro store. Be sure to get one that is vented at both ends and has tempered glass. Sometimes you have to slightly modify the holes for the lugs on the socket set but that is no big deal. Also make sure it is compatible with your ballast if you also need the socket set.
 
Thanks for the reply! Do you have a specific manufacturer and model that will work? There are so many options!!

Consider a CoolTube. That is likely what I would do. You may have to purchase some hardware or mounting parts or whatever but it might be the way to go.
