HID ---> HPS

I have a 250W HID light that was used in a warehouse.
I noticed MH conversion bulbs are there any HID to HPS bulbs?

thanks!

Umm..

High Pressure Sodium IS an HID light...So is MH. :wtf:

HID is just a classification of light intensity...:jointsmile:

What color is the bulb that is in the socket? How many watts is the ballast capable of producing?

EYE 360W HPS Conversion Bulb - Plantlighting Hydroponics

this aint the right wattage, but im sure you will find the one you need. I have almost the same setup, 400 watt mh ballast with a conversion bulb, Works great.

I know they are the same type of light,as T8 and T12 floros are,but I didn't think you could interchange the bulbs between the different ballasts.
Its white Light,
Its the kind of Fixture you would see in a CVS or toys R US.Very Big and bulky,I'm going to take the socket out, run a neutral and power line from the ballast and put the bulb under a DIY reflector.
So the white light is considered MH?


Its actually a 400W
You know I think you are right,I was thinking of bulbs.

I think I might be ok.
It says on the sight that those bulbs are suitable for M59 ballast.
It says the same thing on my ballast,suitable for M59 or H33 bulbs. :)
Does that mean I need a conversion bulb? or will a normal HPS work in this ballast?
