Don't need help anymore on this topic :)

Finally have some bulbs so I can try a 400w MH over the center of the tank, need help wiring it though:

It has:
120v/227v/Common on one side

The other has:
Cap/Common

So I know not to use the 227v wire, my question is what is the correct wiring for this?

Basically confused on the commons and where the should go.

Thanks,

It was almost useful.... Still looking.

Never mind, that pot site was actually useful, flip the ballast over and there is a diagram, idiot me!

My brain is still back in the Metro somewhere... Got it all hooked up and I really like the 20k look now! Turned it back off until I get some input about acclimation.

Yes it does Brett

I hooked it up into my PFO box.
