nickfury, i suggested something like this. this is idea for ballast, he deffenetly shouldnt use cardboard for HPS.

anyway, its pretty hard to burn cardboard. lights would make it crispy and it would crisp apart, but deffinetly not burn

read this...then tell me how your little cardboard box would help him out..and what it has to do with a ballast.......

What is a Lighting Ballast?

 

[nickfury510]

sometimes you can buy diy kits with all the components..you just have to put it together yourself.....but then again..alot of places have specials where you can pick up a 400w set up for around 150 or less
