my ballast work with double ended MH?

mindless_fool · 25th January 2005, 03:40 AM

i got a ballast for a regular metal halide bulb of 400 watts ...it has a mongul base ..i was wondering if i could use that ballast for a $400 watt double ended metal halide by just switching the plug from mongul to the double ended

thanks for any help
