Rick Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Price lowered to $150 This 542 Watt fixture is 48" long and includes 2 - 175 Watt DE Metal Halide lights (20k bulbs), 2 - 96w PC lights (460nm Actinics), and 6 - Led Moonlights. This is an Odyssea fixture which I have reworked a bit including upgrading the fan to a 4" fan, replacing the original 65w PC dual ballast with 2 96w workhorse ballasts (Both in a single enclosure) separating the circuits to allow the lights to be run on individual timers, and overall checking the wiring throughout. I'm asking $175 for this. For another $50 I can bend a couple of 7/8" T304 stainless steel tubes to make a really nice over the back hanger and I'll even throw in a couple of SS eye ends (Normally these run about $15 each). One of the 175w MH Bulbs has about 10 weeks of use on it, other is unknown, Both PC bulbs also have about 10 weeks of use on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 Still available, I'm not going to be checking my PMs until late Sunday so the best way to reach me unti then will be the cell number in the previous message. Might be in and out of service some so keep trying if you don't get through at first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 If anyone is interested in this I'm open to offers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Price lowered to $150 Firm. At that price I will no longer accept any lower offers as that is already a smoking deal and it is what I have to get for this to be able to upgrade. If I can't get that for it by the time I get the funds to upgrade then I'll just keep it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I would just keep it and wait for some one to post looking for a 48 inch light. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 I would just keep it and wait for some one to post looking for a 48 inch light. JMO I'm going to list it on Craigslist for $200. I know I can get that for it if I hold out for it. The only reason I listed it for less is that I have a deal in the works that will allow me to upgrade my lights to 400w but it will only work if I sell this one for at least $150. If that deal falls through before someone buys it then I will just keep it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelhead77 Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Do you have legs or hangers for this unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 It doesn't have legs although there are 4 sliders that legs would attach to. (I think the legs can be purchased separately) I have the 7/8" polished stainless steel tubing and a bender that I can bend them with to make a really nice hanger that would attach to a stand. For $180 I would be willing to throw in a pair of them and include two stainless eye ends to make it look fancy. (Just the tubing and eye ends would normally cost $80) It would still need a couple of short pieces of chain for between the light and the hanger and then 4 brackets to mount them to the stand. They could be mounted in back, on the corners, sides, etc. If strength is a concern this tubing is way overkill for this application but it is what I have here already.

steelhead77 Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I've even got my wife interested in these lights. That means I'm more than halfway there. (whistle) Now I just need to come up with the coin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 I've even got my wife interested in these lights. That means I'm more than halfway there. (whistle) Now I just need to come up with the coin. If your interested in getting it with the parts for a hanger as well then if it helps I am flexible on that portion. I can't give it away but I could work a trade for that part. I.E. $150 plus trade (I'm open to just about anything on trade) instead of $180.

steelhead77 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Still working on the wife....She's slowly coming around, says she really likes the shimmer halides give. Hopefully you'll still have it when she gives in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 Let me know. Currently I have 2 others interested however one backed out due to a lack of funds which I don't expect to change and the other made me a lower offer which I can't take.

CA2OR Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Steelhead77, you can always use the "I am doing it for you" tactic. Hope it works. Worked with my wife a couple times but now she is a little wiser to my tactic's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
