Question

Help Finding an Old Thread!!!


i can not find a thread, can somebody help me. this was prolly last year sometime or very early this year. Jimbo (i think) posted instructions on what to get at HD to set up a VHO lighting system. i have done all kinds of searches and can not locate it. does anybody else remember what i am talking about? he explained the wiring and gave part numbers.

DRIVING ME CRAZY!!

thanks,

G~

what parts are you looking to get? Ballast? Endcaps?

HD usually doesn't carry VHO stuff but you might luck out and find an advance ballast that fires 2 110w VHO.

FWIW you can pick up a WH7(fires upto 2 110w VHO) +2 pairs of endcaps for about 65 bucks, pick up some bulbs and your set!

this was actually a normal ballast that HD carries. for some reason it was able to power VHO bulbs. like only one or two small ones.

thanks,
