250W Vs 400W MH setup?? - Page 2

It's exactly that. All you have to do is get a spherical reflector that is bigger than the bulb and place the element of the bulb as close to the center of the sphere as possible. The reason is: if the element of the bulb is at the center of the sphere, then the light hits the surface perpendicular to the tangent of the sphere at that particular point thus sending the light right back to the source and therefore recycling it.

The 400W kit is currently in the process of being sold, but I do have a 1000W kit if you are interested.

Darn, 1000w is great but the cost to run it is just not good. Thanks anyways.
