Floralux Light systems? - Growroom Lighting - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

I was at my local hydroponic shop where I saw a Floralux 400 watt HPS setup. It seemed like it was a pretty sturdy setup and well crafted. I was wondering if anyone else has experimented with this brand at all? I beleive the guy told me that it could be air cooled as well. I might look more into it.

Anyone ever use one or know any information on them?

If it Floralux, you shouln't have much heat from them. atleast not as much as a normal HPS light would give

I own a smaller Floralux lamp and it is well made, very happy with it. They can be aircooled using a flange which you have to buy seperately. I would probably go with a mixed spectrum bulb in the 400 if you can get it. I know they do package deals and a lot of time the HPS is included automatically. If so, just use it and then replace with a Hortilux when the time comes.

Floralux is not a fluorescent - it just sounds like it.

edit - is it an internal ballast or remote? Internal I would stay away from in that size light.
