  1. okay well i have already built a ccab with dimensions of 52H 32W and 15 deep. and also have a pc box which i could start seedlings in, but i still have a quite a bit of space in the room were my cab and pc will be, so i was thinking of maybe getting like a 400w or 600w hps/ mh ballast kit, anyone have any input or advice? how well to the dimmable ballasts work? and would i be able to control the temps of the hps with just oscilation fans in the room?:confused:
     
  2. Sorry i forgot to mention i wont be using my hps in my cab even tho it is dimmable. For my hps.ill me growing in an area.without any enclosure. Bout.12 ft.wide. Bout 8 to 10 ft deep an bout 10 ft high
     
  3. The T5 I linked would be a great fit for that cabinet.

    that t5 bulb ia nice:D
     
  5. Haha, sorry I guess I misunderstood your question? Youre looking for a light for your bigger grow area, not the cab.. gotcha. Well CFLs wouldnt make sense in an area that large obviously... I recommend Nextgen 400w ballasts then. Sorry for the confusion ;)

    Next to genetics, lighting is the most important factor for indoor gardening. ReVolt is proud to offer the latest advance in digital ballast technology. These digital dimmable ballasts offer a glimpse of the future of HID lighting control systems. They offer an improved design and increased efficiency, while delivering the best performance in the industry. Lab tests have shown that the ReVolt digital ballasts use up to 30% less electricity and are up to 30% brighter than traditional magnetic ballasts. Tested against the 3 top-selling brands in today's marketplace, ReVolt ballasts outperform them all in terms of power consumption and light output.

    The dimmable option allows for maximum control of light and heat output during the growing cycle, cutting down electrical costs, and increasing bulb life. The internal components are of the highest quality. An internal cooling fan, and resin coated circuit board allow for the coolest possible operating temperature (up to 15% cooler that other digital ballasts), which in turn results in an extended life for your ballast.
