I don't think so. Ive never heard of a 15 watt mh. lowest ive seen was 150. also they require a heavy ballast to work. and i didn't see one in the pics. to me it looks like a regular incadescent made for giving low levels of light to aquarium plants that are underwater and need much light. sorry

love da stealthy desk grow. i also live with my parents at 17 yrs old. I just don't have the guts to try and grow in my closet. ive just been readin and doin some research so when I get 18 and move out i can get started asap.
already have a 400 watt metal halide that i got off of ebay for 17 bucks plus 15 shipping. the heat from that thing is horrible.

wish u good luck wit tha grow though.

I believe young city is right although your picture is pretty blurry. Generally, HPS bulbs are quite a bit longer while Metal Hailide is short and fat
