elements ..... MH actually burns hotter than HPS . 600 watt bulbs are more expensive cuz 600 watts is hydro only . theres no commercial application for 600 watt fixtures . in commercial apps , it goes from 400 to 1000 watts nothing in between , which is why they soak ya for 600 watt equipment ..... BS huh ??
hey dans...
i thought it was the other way around on bulb temps?
hps=hotter
MH=cooler
?

i bought a laser temp gun a few months ago...
haHA!... now Ive got a reason to use it
but yeah, they gotch ya by the balls on 600s
there's been instances i could have really used 600w'ers
but with dimable ballasts as cheap as they are it's nice to have the all the horsepower when its needed
and dim down when ya have to
