The ONLY reason I am getting rid of it is that ever since I switched to (3) 400w halides I keep blowing fuses when all 3 are running. I am unable to pull anymore wires through the existing piping, so I am trading this set.

I have for trade:
400w M59 ballast, Spider Reflector, Mogul, and 10k bulb

Things I am looking for:
- (2) 14k or above 400w bulbs
- Colorful Corals SPS or Whatcha Got
- Or ?

Thanks
Garrick :(
 
Garrick, droping down to 250 HQI ballast and overdriving single ended lamps can often give you more PAR that what your getting from the 400s and draw less current so your breaker doesnt trip. (3) 400s draw 12 amps which pretty much uses up a 15 amp breaker all by themselves.
 
Ya, I knew the HQI ballast put out more juice, but since decided on going to a Lumenarc Reflector I will only have room for 2 anyway. As always, thanks for the advise..:)
