El Cheapo Guide to Lighting
Here's an 8 bulb fixture I built using an add-on light kit for a ceiling fan. These are the lights we give away once a month(or something similar). The kit cost me $4 at MallWart. The rest of the parts cost about $40 at goodwill and the hardware store. The reflector is an aluminum deli tray from a catering business that went bankrupt.

ok well i could not get the 400 watt hps but i did get my hands on a 80$ 150 watt hps and imma have to use that till i can save about 400$ to buy one from ebay prob a bit cheaper but i want to have some choice but i might make a little grow box thats 2x2x4 for the 150 watt system or would it be ok to still use it in my closet the system is a mini floralux 150 watt hps system and i bought a bulb that says it puts out 21,000 lumens which is a little more than the original bulb came with its been awhile since ive grown any info will be used:stoned:

depends a lot on temperatures, strain, ventilation, etc. But a 150 watt hps will not put out more heat than a typical light bulb or two, so you're probably ok there.
