ok just placed my order for two 250w lumatek ballast from a sponsor on here.
searched around and most ppl have compared these with icecaps and have prefered them over galaxies so thought i'd give them a try

not sure what bulbls yet. looking to get two of these reflectors first and find something similar to this that will not rust and corrode to replace my glass tops and hang these reflectors and supplimental lighting on.




ok just found out the mesh is an expanded metal mesh. anyone know where i can get some just strong enough to hold up my lighting but not so thick that it weighs to much and makes it too hard to cut?

Most Metal Fab shops can get Expanded metal in or already carry it. Also, you can get it Powder coated to handle the corrosion and such..
