Sori to cut in bongsmoke but are they all ceramic MH are these hps/MH shrouds using different type of MH.. might be a stupid question sori but I was noticing they have types saying " now interchangeable with HPS and MH " or has it always been like that .

I wasn't sure if they had CMH aswell as just plain MH or if they all ceramic and just can't be bothered mentioning the "Ceramic" part in the description when u buying... I always thought hps and MH used seperate shrouds. But I've seen them say lately . Works with HPS or MH in the same kit

If its a 400W ballast use a 400W lamp.

Yes, majority of the newer Ballasts run both MH and HPS lamps.

Put a new one in it. You don't know how many hrs the lamps done and they do deteriorate. I use mine for about 6 months then trash them. Keep ur fingers off the lamp.
