use an orange extension cord for the wiring, keep the length under 10ft, I had to box-up my ballasts, all i gotta do now is plug in the bulb sockets to the ballast boxes (which are themselves plugged to the wall, after plugging the sockets in, not before), works damn good.
4x5 Reviewed by 4x5 on . REWIRING 400W HPS . My HPS has the ballast in the hood, which I want to seperate for cool tube purposes. Theres a blue and a white cord running from the bulb socket to the ballast. The white one is thicker, or more insulated. Can I just lengthen those two cords with just ordinary cords or are they both different? Will I kill myself? I know very little about electricity... Rating: 5
