I dont have it yet but I will in a couple weeks so I will come and join the club after I finish a grow the the 400w HPS. Can I run a 430w Sun Agro bulb with just a 400w ballast?

I don't know there is such a thing as a 430 ballast. The Son Agro 430 will run on an S51 ballast, same as a 400 HPS. I used to run a 170 Son Agro on my 150 ballast. Then I had to replace it ASAP with a 150 HPS. The garden never saw the difference but, my wallet sure did.Thundurkel said:

Long-time lurker checking in with the basic layout for my (in-the-works) 430W HPS veg / flower cab. Hope those extra 30 watts won't be a barrier to my membership in this elite squadron of cultivators...
This is my first grow, so I really have no idea what I'm doing - Feel free to let me know where I went wrong; As may be apparent, I've layed this out based solely on what I've gleaned from these very forums... Comments? Criticisms? Adjustments? Suggestions? Let 'er rip!

As a related aside in my quest to build the perfect cab, I'm curious to hear how small of a flower space you all would be willing to work with running a 430W Son Agro - My limit is pretty set @ 2 feet depth wise, but height and width are negotiable. If I could safely run this lamp in a cab that isn't much bigger than 4ft tall on the outside, it'd be *alot* easier to keep this stealth. Is this a good idea?

Heat rises bro so pulling the heat down and out is not very efficient. you will have more heat in ur box then if you would pull the heat up and out. my flouro flower box has the same kind of down and out design, with the filter right in the middle of the box. and even a small flouro box with 200 cfm pulling through it it still runs a constant 90 lights on.
edit oh and here's my new flower box design. xtrasun 400w hps, super hortilux bulb, on a light mover. moves back and forth 18 inches with a 2 second pause on each end. dimensions for the area under the light are 43"x34"
it's still in contruction. gonna seal it again with more panda film to be absolutely sure its light proof

Very understandable, and thanks for the tip - Unfortunately, the logistics of the room I'm putting the grow in require venting out the bottom right side of the cab. The room this will be in has 16" logs on all sides (lending the room it's excellent thermal stability in general) *except* for a 2x6 baseboard on the right bottom side that I can punch through into the crawlspace. How much of an efficiency hit do you think I'll take pushing it down like that instead of venting upwards as most do?
