Commercial Lighting on Clivedon Ave, Annacis Island. I dealt with a fellow named Colin, but anybody in sales should be able to help you. Just ask for a 430 watt Son Agro ballast. The ballast they sell is the one by Venture which according to the specs is a more efficient than the Advance Transformer. 4.55 amp draw vs 5.2.
Ballast comes with ignitor and cap. mogul socket for the bulb is another 5 bucks.

So I just got back from Commercial lighting. I bought a 175W and 250W MH core and coil for 126.00 taxes in. I was a little nervous because there was no box or wiring done, but they gave me the name of a guy to call. He say that he can put it in a bow=x and do all the wire and put on a socket and plug for about 50.00 each, and he comes to my house. Now thats service. I hope that was good price. For the 175W and 250W units complete will cost me 226.00.

Steve, he said that for 50.00 he would come by and size up my ballast so that he could get a box(if he didn't have one that fit already) and connect all the wiring put on the cords with plugs and what ever kind of socket I wanted. That for each ballast. And theres the fact that I don't have a clue what i'm doing. That pick that you put up of the M80 thread is exactly what mine looks like, minus that smaller rectangular black box.

Hey steve,Can I still get a starter for mine? Are they expensive? Would I have to get it before that guy does my boxes or is it something that can be easily added
