  1. Okay so i ordered two 400w HPS bulbs and two 400w MH Bulbs. and a 400w MH Ballast and a 400w HPS Ballast.

    I didn't get my HPS Ballast but i did get my MH Ballast and it's just a bunch of wires hooked up to some heavy ass thing. I'm no electrician. Anyone able to help me (or give me link to help or pre-wired Ballasts for sale)?
     
  2. There is a couple different sets of wires you could have goin' on. Youll need to post a picture so we can see if it has a set of 220v or 110v wires or both.
