yes i would prefer a 400 over a 250 also but how about two 250 over a 400? if kept in close proximity like only 2-5 inches apart between pendants and having both the lighting overlap i am hoping that it would atleast be close or = to the 400 in par and intensity. i would have more flexability with two 250. i would not have a huge reflector sitting on my canopy and with two hqi i can get small pendants or just the shell to fit it into my canopy just need to find a way to rid the glass top to let the heat escape.
what do you guys think?
