600w lamps. They're supposed to be the best.

Here's the link to where I got them on eBay

I'll have all 4 in my tent, each will burn for 6hs a night. This should spread the light out nicely.

Cool, I'll look for them. It seems your link just goes to a picture?

I have 1000w ballast, but the prices on those ushio 1's are MUCH cheaper than I'm paying for eye hortilux..

Are Ushio on par with those?If so, I can say that paying almost 1/2 price would be sweeet.

Oh yeah USHIO all the way! I mean really I can't say the product is better from one or the other... so yeah, save some cash.

Link Fixed!

Finally got the lamps hung... I'm excited to see the results. :) There is a big difference in how bright the light is compared to my old lamps... I was already running USHIOs, but they were old b/c I was broke for a while...
USHIOs firing up...

How do you run 2 lamps off the same ballast? What's the benefit of that?

Using DPDT relays, I made a flip/flop. Only 2 lamps can burn at 1 time. After 6hs, a timer switches the power to the other 2 lamps. It's a light mover w/o having orbs of glowing heat moving around the tent...

Nukku I know you're overseas, but I only paid like $30 for each relay... It was real easy to make myself. Let me know if you need any help.

Zendo- Have you have the opportunity to germ any of those seeds I gave you? Just wondering...


hey, haven't had a chance yet. I'll be popping the grape skunk and purp x grape skunk here in two weeks, and will be in my run I flower in 8 weeks, along with some AK's and some of your double strawberry diesel as well. The bogglegum's will be in my next run that I'm getting ready to start mid-month :thank you:
