Save up and don't try to skimp on lighting. Pay now or pay twice later.
couldn't agree more

Reefgeek has the retros that use the Icecap reflectors but not the ballasts, a bit cheaper.

I agree this is your next best option. The icecap ballast adds a decent amount of cost to a package, but you really can't skimp on much more since the the reflectors are quite important and the only other main cost. It's not really possible to go "cheaper" per say on the wire or bulbs other than searching for the absolute best price out there.
