i find it hard that david has said your lights are no good, as I've never seen him even speak this way, always straight forward and speaks to people tactfully, you seem to paint him as a bad person ?
sorry your posts really confused me.

so he never said your lights are NO GOOD.
now on other issue, I do not think there is any 175W HQI system out there, I would go out check web pages for more info and find out what systems are there.
besides the admin suspects you're roon21, I will just stop here, I did find it odd that you said '600 bucks and SOLD' it really struck me as odd -

If you look at the top of the thread it says 150w and that he was sorry for the typo, A brand new set up is 700$ and there a year old with new bulbs how bad can they be after a year

good point.
I missed that typo
and another point, how bad could they be, not bad - but 600 bucks then suppose bulbs are to be replaced, bulbs are 80'ish at least, you're paying more than new.
/me swears to himself that he will not get into this tread any longer..

Red,
I DON"T APPRECIATE YOU POSTING SOMETHING I SENT TO YOU IN PRIVATE WITHOUT ASKING FOR MY CONSCENT. IF I WANTED IT HERE I WOULD HAVE POSTED IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I never said it was NO good. I am saying that this isn't that good of a deal if you consider that a BRAND NEW Aqualine Buske fixture is only $100 more than your buying a USED Hamilton fixture for.
I don't think there is anyone out there that wouldn't agree that the Aqualine Buske fixture is the Best of the Best when it comes to HQI Double-ended setups.
Geesh. I'm only trying to help !
And based on what your trying to keep, your better off with a 250W HQI vs. the 150W HQI anyway.
