HPS Lights

I was wondering if this light bulb would work in a normal light fixture...http://californiahydro.stores.yahoo.net/unhiprso.html

Nope

You're gonna need to connect it to a suitable ballast.

You can get a complete working HPS for about 50 bucks and then wire it to be remote ballasted. Doesnt take more than a half hour or so.

the regent light they use is nice b/c you can use the fixture casing as a ballast.
