you're ok for the wait, however, your buds will be quite airy and small, flo's work, just not as well... let me see if i can come up with something for you... i've a friend that has lots of old mh lights (400w) that he doesn't use anymore... the only prob is i have to climb a realy tall ladder, and take them down myself. with shaking probs, that's a little scary. those things are EXTREMELY HEAVY!! but if i can get one, i'd be happy to pass it on... you'd have to get some solarmax gold bulbs though... could you do your own wiring from a detailed description and diagram?
