One of my Gavita 6/750 fixtures died. A friend has Gavita 1000 watt fixtures that he will sell cheap.

Can I use a Gavita 6/750 bulb in the 1k fixture set on the 600 watt and 750 settings? Will it be the exact same as using a 6/750 fixture on the 600 watt and 750 watt settings?

Thanks.

I dont belive they are same size.. maybe 750W is shorter than 1000 DE..

am never sees 750 w bulb but doesnt look logical no matter 1000 fixture have
750 w option..

You sure they are same size,think on both type bulbs??

Both bulbs are the standard DE size.

You'll likely burn the bulb out quicker in an oversized ballast.


Possibly even risk a fire hazard if the bulb bursts.
