I bought a 400W hps from some asshole on ebay who sent me a ripped off street light w/ a big-ass ballast. NBow the thing seems to work alright, iut'sa been on non-stop for like a week, so i'm not worried about the safety, but the light it casts is this bright pinkish-reddish-purpleish light. It is hot, but i have a fan on it at all times. The bulb is labeled 400W, and it appears to be a proper GE LUX HPS BULB. Someone tell me this is normal. thanx.
do you have a camera? cause a picture would help....but it sounds like an HPS.....can you find a picture on the net that looks somewhat like it?
