CA2OR Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I have a JBJ 150w/MH, it is a clip on, and I was wondering if it could support a 250w bulb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpunk Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 I don't think so, you would have to change the ballast. Thats a lot more juice to be running through it... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would need to get a 250 watt ballast 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R-3 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I think it requires a different bracket also 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Thank you very much for the input. I noticed last night that the ballast states on it that it is for 150w. Bump to all that helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamatSLS Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 A 250W lamp wouldn't even fit... Radium makes a 150W HQI lamp now, you should get that. It's pretty nice. Any of the local shops can get you one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
