Default LF: 250W MH hardware

Hello,

I am thinking of gonig old school with 250W SE radiums. Does anyone have hardware in good working order lying around they are looking to get rid of and are willing to ship. Ballast (m80 preferably) or reflectors?

Thanks!

Randolph

I should add, the 250 W electronic ballasts with the "HQI" setting would also work!.

Thank you

I just bought lumateks From reef supply in Quebec to replace my failing Hamilton ballasts. Great pricing and service. And WOW these are so much better. Running my new 250/400 eballasts on 250SL (Super Lumens)

However of you google, you will find many using these on radiums as these bulbs don't run well with many ballasts but work with these. I recall reading about this when researching. These ballasts are also eballasts. A step up from electronic ones
