Derbird Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Hello Everyone, Well I need to sell my light (sad). The older house we rent just can't handle the power it takes to run this plus the tank with out running wires everywhere creating tripping hazards or calling an electrician. Not doing electrical in a house I don't own and I'm a klutz so...... I need to go a different route with my final tank light. MH bulbs are mix matched. I got these at West Side and didn't notice until they shut down. Here is the stats 6' Sunlight Supply Maristar fixture 70.4" x 13.75" x 4.3" 3 x 250 watt MH 4 x 39 T-5 HO Good condition Bulbs are all brand new, only used long enough to test them 2 x Ushio 20,000 K 1 x Phoenix 14,000 K 4 x 39 watt T-5 HO Actinic Ballast, I have a duel Sunlight Supply 250 watt that will go with this fixture. I only planned on running two of the bulbs so I have the one ballest. I am asking what I payed for this $400 New prices run from $700 - $1200 without bulbs or ballast so I think this is a great deal This is a great light and if the ancient circuit breaker could handle it and the tank I would not be selling. Fell free to PM or post with any questions Thanks for looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The light is not the issue, I love it. Its the electrical in my rental home that can't handle the awesome light. If it would work for me you would have to pry this out of my dead hands (whistle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rathos Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Does this have feet for setting on the tank or does it come with any other mounting hardware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbird Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 Does this have feet for setting on the tank or does it come with any other mounting hardware? No feet or stands. It has four eye hooks for hanging. I planed on using it in my canopy so didn't buy the feet. But it will hang nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
