Found another awesome CL buy today. I've been looking for a good veg light for a while, and was planning on going with a 2'x4' 8 bulb T5HO, would be 432 true watts. I found a guy selling a unit for $100 yesterday that I was gonna go pick up today. BUT.. My Craigslist notifier app (notifies me when new ads are posted with keywords I save) had a few alerts this morning. Found a 600W digital switchable ballast, with a MH bulb and HPS bulb, and vented enclosed hood for... wait for it.....
$50!! But wait, there's more... after calling on it this morning I learn the guy is just enlisting in the army, getting ready to ship out for training, so I talk with him for 10 minutes or so, about when I was in and what not, and he said he had some other equip he's getting rid of as well, so I said what do ya got? This is what else he's got:
2 oscillating fans
1 6" inline
1 4 ft 4 bulb T5HO
Adjustable Hangers (yo yo style)
Other various odds and ends like power splitters, timers, etc
Asked him what he would like for it and he said he would throw those things in fo free!
So the final tally is
1 - enclosed 6" vented reflective hood and yo yo hangers
1 - dimmable digital 600W switchable ballast
1 - 600W MH bulb
1 - 600W HPS bulb
2 - oscillating fans
1 - 6" inline fan
1 - 4 ft 4 bulb T5HO
1 - window adapter for venting 6" ducting to window
And then some various odds and ends.
Total $50!
But since he's shipping off to training I'll probably throw an extra fitty in, seeing as how that's still a really good fucking deal.
Edit: that "small t5 clone light" turned out to be a 4ft 4 bulb T5HO
