this is a 400w dimmable hps/mh set for cheap...
my question is...why is it soo cheap is it just a great deal?
and also the reflector..heat is a biggggg problem in my tent and the basic wing reflector does not have a cool tube...
is the 6' cool tube set worth it you can see it on this link.. plz let me kno im using a high bay and it just puts out far too much heat!!

That price is about right. Here is a dimmable 600 HPS, same company, for under $150

A cool tube is a must when dealing with heat issues like yours.

I just paid around $400 for a 600w digital hps with hortilux super bulb upgrade... after tax. It hurts a bit to see that deal...

Yeah ,but don't worry. Yours will still be working 10 years from now. I did the same as you, spent double for higher quality. After three years, I have no regrets.
