I just setup my whole metal halide light fixture and ballast.
the ballast is sitting on a solid slab of concrete on the floor and the light is held above by the two arms you see and hooks, thanks home depot.
this is the first time I have fired it up and did not know if it even worked.
its a 400w 20000k bulb.
its really bright white and blue and Im really amped to see it lit up, its illuminating the whole basement :Cheers:
is there ever a somewhat smokish scent or burning scent that surfaces when the bulb is heating up. I cant tell and I dont see or feel anything hot or burning. just curious and new to these
any help is appreciated
this pic was right after I turned it on its really bright now, also I have a bookcase near the light as u can see and another tank will this be harmful to things close by it?
