http://www.ebay.com/itm/8-Inline-Fan-High-Volume-750-CFM-/261105287092?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3ccb167fb4

If anyone can find a cheaper 8" inline fan please let me know.

they all run about 800 cfm different meters different results they are all made from the same parts though... ill keep an eye out though sometimes i see 10" ones for like 80$ through industrial companies.

Found this 400w hps/mh on ebay w/ cooltube. Pretty attractive price. A bit concerned that the bulbs aren't going to be good quality though. Anyone get something like this with good results?

I bought a 250w kit very similar. The bulbs were meh at best. I ended up buying a GE Lucalox HPS to replace the HPS that came in the kit. I don't use MH since I just run a 12/12 from seed perpetual grow.
I was thinking the same thing about this system.

Figure it wouldn't be a huge deal using the cheap bulb for veg. Even if I had to buy a new hps bulb I would still be better off a system like this goes for MUCH more.

whenever i buy anything, i seem to spend 2 weeks comparison shopping for the best price. well, over the last 3 years i have NEVER been able to beat the prices at www.plantlightinghydroponics.com , not even ebay can touch their prices and they always have top quality, name brand stuff with quick shipping and discreet, plain brown boxes. No, lol, i dont work for them, ive just been a longtime customer. If anyone finds a product cheaper than their prices, please reply to this post so ill be sure to see it. lol

I just got a good deal on 1000w air cooled packages to supplement my LEDs. They're magnetic packages, but they're stupid inexpensive:

1000w Wing: https://growershouse.com/econo-wing-reflector-1000w-budget-package
Magnetic ballasts are better. They just are. Digital can interfere and be interfered with by all kinds of electrical stuff. Just like HPS, I want to stay with what works. Magnetic ballasts are just better, and don't break... not to mention cheaper. We have a weiner!

I'm looking for a 600w HID system for the best system. I don't know if digital or magnetic is best. To my knowledge the new digital ones were recalled and installed with RF shielding now. I'm not sure the difference between cool tube or vented hood, what is the pros and cons of each. And correct me if I'm wrong but a adjustable ballast would allow me to run the bulb at a lower watt thus less heat?.

Yeah magnetic ballasts rock !!

Mostly because they are hotter, loud, run more inefficiently, wear out over time, are not adjustable, and you can't wall mount them. Makes all the sense in the world.

Yeah, we definitely have a wiener here.

I paid $118 for my 250 with ballast. MH and HPS bulbs, hangers, timer, and batwing hood on eBay. That's prob about as cheap as you'll get.
I'm replacing my 250 with a 600
