I don't understand a whole lot about the type of balasts you can get. I know that I have a 250 watt 14k mogul setup, and my balast is just the basic magnetic start M-58 I think. What is HQI, and why is it better? I have the guts of the 400 over at quick grow right now for them to wire up. Should I be looking at trading in that one and maybe my 250 for this HQI?
