Looking to buy an HPS system, need advice

[Mississippi Steve]

Hey I am thinking about buying an hps system but am not totally sure which one would be the best fit for my plants.

Would a 400 watt system be sufficient for 4-8 plants? So far I am considering Hydroempire, Organic Hydroponic Nutrients, Indoor Grow Lights and Supplies - 400 Watt HPS & MH Advantage Mini System - $279.95$239.95 or finding one on ebay.

I would like to keep the price as low as possible but the idea of getting a system that would be able to use an hps or mh bulb is pretty attractive.

Any suggestions?

For those kind of prices you should at least get a complimentary BJ, or at least a courtisy reach around. My local electrical supply house has 400w HPS *complete* for $75
