the ballast for the 400 watt radiums that Stephane is talking about are "Cheep tar ballasts" but if you don;t have anything bought at this point.. I would chose between 250 and 400 watt.. the ballast that run the radiums nice are under 100.00 they will also burn a 10000K 400 watt ushio real nice also.

the tar ballast that I am using for my 250 watt AB bulbs are a little more comming in at about 150.00 each.
