I bought a 175 watt Advance ballast from Albright lighting,it was $55.00,the socket was about 5 dollars.My only complaint was the noise from the ballast,although I can barely hear the humming since I put on a skimmer and a canopy fan.

Hi,

You may want to check with Albrite and ask for a Highhorse HH-MH-UNV-175. Its a 175W MH (M57) electronic ballast from Fulham. They are fairly efficient (90%) and fairly easy to wire together.

I am not sure if they are available here...so you can at least give them a call.

Oh...have you considered HQI ?

Victor,

Highhorses aren't out yet. I have been in contact with Fulham and when the first run comes out in a month or two I am supposed to get a pair of 175W's to have fun with. Can't wait.

And Cheryl just moved into a new condo so I doubt she is gonna go HQI. :D

Shao: Darren has mentioned that guy too, but I can't remember what else he said, he could probably tell you more.

Al: I am looking for one set up for my new 33, and yes I would need bulbs too.

Thanks!
Cheryl

Hi,

Have you been to Jamie's place yet ? Those lamps are HQI. Fairly popular in europe, but we pay a premium for that stuff. Functionally speaking, they have better spectrum and intensity than MH. An average 150W HQI tends to perform like the best 175W or a poor 250W MH setup. Keep in mind that they are quite expensive, but they are really nice.

Darren,

Yah...I am still waiting for those too. I was going to try driving HQI with those [img]smile.gif[/img]
