So i found the rod brackets at ace hardware, but there are 2 sizes: 7/16" and 5/8" diameter. Which one should i get?
Also, I can't seem to find a mogul lamp socket big enough to fit my 400w hps. For those with 400w or 600w cool tubes, did you all use the socket from your current system or did you guys buy it from a store? I searched everywhere at Lowes/Home Depot/Ace Hardware but couldn't seem to find one big enough for my light. So I searched on ebay and came upon this listing: http://cgi.ebay.com/Porcelain-Lamp-H...3%3A1|294%3A50

It seems like Type 1 would fit my bulb. Can someone please take a look and confirm that I'm buying the right one.
Please help me out
