Thinking of going 150w HQI to 175w SE. Advise!

The HQI actually use more than 150W, the 150W is just an approximating figure. People hook up a 250W HQI ballast to a regular 250W SE to overdrive the bulb and get more output. Anyways, theoretically both are about the same and if you are happy with what you've got, the change is just a waste of time IMO. Also, everyone is talking about the 15W difference, 150 and 175 are actually 25W's apart
