Stuck - figuring out HID lighting
Yes!
Find out if those security lights are 110-120v.
The rigid box looking thing mounted on top of the bowl shaped reflector, just so happens to be the ballast.
Should just have to remove the reflector, add an extension to the cord between the socket and ballast, put the ballast somewhere safe up high, and hang your bulb.

beBeFree Reviewed by BeFree on . Stuck - figuring out HID lighting Hey all! I just made an impulsive buy for a 250w HPS bulb off ebay. I trying to switch from CFL's to HID for optimal yield. I know I need a ballast now to provide power to the bulb. My question - Can I take apart this HPS commercial light fixture(see below pic), which has a built-in 250w ballast, and steal its ballast? Is it going to be difficult for someone w/ little electrical background? Somebody in my area is selling these light fixtures on Craigslist for $20, a great way to save Rating: 5
