Sorry, all they showed was a schematic showing what I describe above. I have wanted to build one of these ever since the 1st of the year. I'll check around for relays.
they showed a cost of 200 bucks for 1 relay to turn on/off 2 1000w MH and a timer to switch the relay for 30 bucks...
So it sounds like the prices you guys researched or spent already is right on track...Now let me see if I can find the components from a less expensive source.

Latewood and Zandor thanks for your interest and positive thoughts. h3o here are your own words........."But hey its up to you, I will not write up a schematic for that system because in my eyes its wrong, and im sure in most electricians view points they wouldnt do it unless they wanted a quick buck".
OK, let's stop the negativity right here, please. This appears to be a commonly done application, and for a very long time. It is nothing new.
uh huh you quoted that when i said i wouldnt do it if you were going to use one ignitor and one cap, but whatever cause im being so "negative" :rolleyes:Quote:

I read it and let it go, but now...whatever woody,
p.s. let it go. I'm tired of wasting time that could be put to better use helping someone who appreciates the help. This is the growing forums...If you insist on feeding into a fight, do it in the lounge, they will love you there. pissed off lw
I am serious.
i know I have been hard on h3o, but I think it would be great if he could draw up a schematic for a flip flop using seperate capacitor and ignitor for each bulb. Especially helpful if he could do it for the 1000 watt HPS lamp with a Constant Wattage Autotransformer.:thumbsup:
Heck if you want, consider it a challenge.:stoned:
Sorry Latewood.........No more arguing from me............ I think I am going to try the omron DPDT heavy duty relay. Also potter and brumfield make some pretty heavy duty one's also.............

Here is the schematic for a CWA HPS ballast, all you have to do is show me where the relay contacts will be in this circuit :confused:
just don't call me Toyota...
It's a bit messy, i didn't want to get sued over copyright infringement; Otherwise I would've just scanned the book
Now of course I don't condone commercial sales...The guys that used this system made $300,000 a year, and quit their day jobs....pity. lol:smokin:
