I was wondering about a 430W ballast kit, but the only thing I can find is 400W.
Why is that? .... Does the 400W run the 430W too? How can it power the extra 30W?
Anyone understand what is happening here?:confused:

430wttr's what a wack number. lol. it is funny though, my shop carries bulbs but not balast too for them. i guess there the odd man or something, that 30 wtt's really aint something ur missing from a 400. might as well go for a 600. But then again im sure u thought about that. GL, personally i would just get a 400, just becuase i can find a wider selection of bulbs at my store. But i guess it depends on your situation.
I heard the extra 30W of different color light helps .... now I will have to do some research ....

i ran a 400hps bulb in a 430 ballast for over a year before i noticed it was not a 400 ballast. it was given to me by a friend who told me it was a 400. so you can run i 400 in a 430 ballast just not the other way around. the 430 is much better. my first grow with that ballast was with a 430 bulb but i broke it at harvest so i got a 400 not realizing it had been a 430. when i finally realized i had a 430 ballast(now with only a 400 bulb) it made alot of sense why i got such a better yeild the first grow and could not seem to duplicate the results.
