well I got a 150 watt HPS and it doesn't seem to even have a damn socket for the light bubl? is this normal? The box that said HPS ballast has an ignitor, and a capacitator and a lot of damn wires, but i don't see any socket or even a mountable device. anyone got any pictures or setup information? thank you.

Looks like you just bought the ballast. You need to buy the whole system. www.insidesun.com

well I can get it a lot cheaper if I buy the light online. this electric supply shop cost me 150 for the ballast only then 25 for a 150 watt HPS bulb. gonna return it.
