Well I just bought two 150watt hps lamps. I thought they work in any outlet but apparently they need a ballast. Could anybody help me out with finding whatever I need to get these working?

I'm not sure.
if ive learned anything from these post is that dierwolf is the man. trust him with all your growing needs... also, if you can return the bulbs...and just buy a system..a good cheap place to go is discount-hydro for the econo systems...just bought a 1000W HPS light for 256$!!!
