Nah man, those things are matched to bulbs and its not cool to mix and match. I'm not saying it wont work but I wouldnt do it. I got enough to worry about without worrying about my house burning down for mix matching bulbs and ballasts.

They make conversion MH bulbs that are made to go in a HPS ballast. As long as the Watts are the same. ie, 400w bulbs, 400w ballast.




I always tell the truth, even when I lie.
