The bulb that came with it was in a generic box and has no name on it. The one I got local is a GE lucolux.

That power draw thing is interesting. But I would hope they would have sent the right bulbs with the set up.
Tatau Reviewed by Tatau on . HPS/ballast issue. Having an issue with my HPS bulb. MH bulb works fine. Went to 12/12 and changed to the HPS bulb. Was working ok, then one morning when I went out to check on the grow it hadn't come on. Juice was getting to it since when I replaced it with the MH it went on immediately. Contacted the people I bought it from and they sent out a replacement bulb. Got the new HPS bulb, replaced it the next am and it lit up fine. Went out the next am, same thing not on and when replaced with MH works, fine. Rating: 5
