No, don't buy that. Seriously I have the 150W version and the ballasts are crap. I've also heard a lot of complaints of the 70W version being way too dim. Get a retro from Lamp Dr. here. http://www.illuming.com/

Here is my $0.02 .... Go with the biggest lamp you think would work. IME the parts needed for a 70W retro will be about the same as a 250W lamp and maybe more than a 150 watter. I have a 250 W lamp over my tank and love it (14k phoenix, no supplements). I havent had any heat issues with it this summer, altough I do have a lot of fans and I use the AC.

What are you planning? Or are you setting up a new tank? just curious....
