Hi,
I'm after a cheap MH unit, but from what I know, after I've bought a bulb for the 150W low bays it's still gonna be around £130. Does the reflectors you come come with ballasts? What do you reckon is the cheapest way to set up MH's (with a little DIY if neccessary). I really like the look of your shop, good prices.

Thanks,
Chris

Chris, i've just ordered a 250W with remote ballast from these guys, i can say the communication so far has been ace. Better to spend a few extra pounds and buy from someone you know is reliable and trustworthy, then cut a corner, buy from some random person then have loads of problems and no where to turn (believe me, i know!)

Ah cool, thanks Paul. I'll probs try and talk my parents into part funding the upgrade. :)

Thanks,
Chris

Just leave out the bit where you're supposed to tell them the wattage of the light! ;)

lol don't worry my dad already knows... He seems more worried about someone accidently tripping over, looking up and staring straight at the bulb lol. I did that once at the lfs (with the tripping up bit :)). Couldn't see anything for ages!

Thanks,
Chris
