Multitap Ballast?
    #564150 - 06/13/11 02:51 PM (13 years, 5 months ago)

I have a 400 watt MH bulb in this ballast now and im wondering if i can just plug in a HPS and be good to go, or if i have to buy the conversion bulb...

here is a picture of the ballast, sorry about the dark lines thats what happens when my camera gets close to the light when it is on....

I actually have 3 of these, and been flowering under 400w MH for now, and it seems like this has alot of options i just want to get an opinion before i go and plug something into it and have it blow up a bulb or catch on fire

Go to a hydro store or get it online.


That bulb is a joke for growing.

Remember u get what u pay for.
