we use a 2000 watt Honda, real quiet and will run 1600 watts of light without tripping, we run all our bulbs underwater thoughNuffDaddy wrote:flight control wrote:I use a halogen bulb mounted in a big ss mixing bowl, hooked up to a car battery to spear eels.

I had 4 500w halogens before and didn't like em. That's why I'm switching to HPS. Looking forward to a quieter generator too.

I did buy the right stuff. I bought 4 150w HPS ballast kits and 4 150w medium base HPS bulbs and 4 exterior medium base sockets.

If you did it would work. Everything is basically color coded when you go to put it together.

I know. It's all hooked up right. I'm thinking it's the overpowered ignitors they gave me with the kits. Hopefully it didn't burn up the 3 different $10 bulbs I tried.
