Richer,
U-Grow on the south side sells 250w ballast in a vented steel case wired with mogul socket for about 120 bucks. All you need to buy is the bulb.

Cheers,

Al

Well, Jim gave me a 175watt pendent for nothing (unless you count that semi-LR I gave him), so I couldn't pass it up . I'll keep that in mind though, thanks!

I suppose I should also ask... do these places sell 10000k bulbs? or only bulbs in the 5000-6700k range?
