All I would say is this, if your savvy and handy, then just get a ballast kit for much much cheaper. Mount it and wire it yourself. All the ballasts from this link provide schematics on how to wire. Honestly, you have to be a complete rookie to not be able to follow it. Hope it saves you some money!

It costs a lot to ship soil, and the soil is way too expensive and not needed. If you have a Menards, you can pick up a 2.0 cu.ft. bag of Premier Sphagnum Peat Moss for $6. Add some perlite and you are good to go. The Fox Farm nutes are good, but the soil is a waste. 1st off, it's easier to add than it is to take away nutes. Fox Farm soil has shit in it. With the peat, the ph is neutral, and you are starting with a clean slate. If you use only distilled water, you won't have to worry about a ph problem. And by starting with no nutes, problems are easily corrected. You just add what's needed.
I've found that just because it's expensive, doesn't mean it's worth a shit. I fell for that BS in the beginning, and wasted a lot of $. I ended up with a fungus gnat problem ( they came with the soil), nute burn, ph problems, and various other issues. I've been pretty much problem free since switching. You really do need to get your flower room set up well before you need it. You have to make sure it is running 100% BEFORE you stick your plants in it. Make sure there are no light leaks, and make sure you will not have any overheating issues. You can not possibly know how hot the room is going to get with the light on, if you don't have the light.

I personaly would not buy another light from HTG supply. My ballast had 5 mo. of use when it took a shit. Guy would not return any of my emails. You get what you pay for, I guess. It supposedly had a warranty, at least that's what his site says. I just hope I'm never on vacation in his part of the country. Guy is an asshole.
