Default Anyone read German can translate this for me?

Will this work on my 150W IceCap ballast that I'm going to get? On the box, it says HSI. Not sure what that means.

It actually does not say much more than. "Brilliant white light for teh saltwater aquarium that enhances fish colors and promotes coralline growth...blah blah blah"

It does not offer any information on the type of bulb (other than HSI) or what type of connectors it has.

Before you even consider buying it.......... check to see if they will charge you VAT tax. I've heard it can be as much as 25%

Cheers,

Ok, thanks for the translation BCWolfen.

Yeah, that translator works good. Hopefully HSI is just the German initials for HID. Oh well, I haven't heard back from the seller yet. Maybe I'll just get 1 and try it out. I'll ask about the VAT. I'll check out RC as well for some info.
