I just got home and noticed my MH was not on. I have checked everything and it appears to be the ballast. I checked the fuse and it is good. So, I will be calling the place I bought it from tomorrow. But that does not do my SPS and good for the next few days until the replacement ballast arrives. So, anyone have a 400W ballast to spare for a few days?

hope someone has one. Good luck.

This is a perfect example of how an equipment library can help our members.

I have a 48" light fixture with newer bulbs...150w MH x2. I know not much but it could help possibly. Let me know if you need to pick it up. I don't need it for another few weeks.

It was nice to meet you Steve, lmk how it goes. Forgot to mention, but you can borrow the PFO set up if you want to.
