check this site out. Hamilton Technology Corporation
you can use a 250 watt bulb as long as they are the same size there are some that have smaller screw ends. but you have to change the ballast to a 250watt one. you can get a ballast for about 150 from hamiliton i think this is where i order my halides from.
 
Yeah MH dont work like normal light bulbs. You cant just change the bulb to a different wattage. You have to match a bulb with a ballast. It would be cheaper to buy a new fixture than to peice together. However, if you peice it together, you get exactly what you want in a retro fit.
