I haev a very similar set up to this, my HQ ballast is different but I have the same reflectors retro fit into my canopy and they work great, just need to keep them clean...good price too, wish I would have found this before I bought mine...

Bump...It's $225 now. Here's a better picture.

Djay · 11-06-2007, 05:07 PM

bump for a steal of a price

Pedro who makes the ballast and it uses the new style connector rt.?

Pedro · 11-06-2007, 08:59 PM

Rad, this is PFO. What new connector are you referring to?

I cannot ship this to florida though. It weighs a ton.

**JF2381** · 11-06-2007, 09:01 PM

PFO makes those ballast. I had the same ballast on my 90 and I loved it.

That's a steal considering the ballast alone sells for $350 plus shipping.

Pedro you can ship that using USPS for about $20 -$30

Pedro · 11-06-2007, 09:06 PM

Yeah but i don't want the headache. You need to really protect it due to it's weight shifting around. I rather someone local come and see it and get it.

Jay wanted it too , he's in florida as well.

**JF2381** · 11-06-2007, 09:08 PM

Teach me how to take photos and I'll ship it for you. LOL

radridz3 · 11-06-2007, 09:09 PM

Thats cool not interested anyways i already have 6700 watts above my shiat. I have an older style ballast and it has 2 hamilton plug connections on it not the new thin pfo plug. I was just curious who made it...

Pedro · 11-06-2007, 09:21 PM

Hey Casanova,

Sorry to get back to you so late. These threads seem to get lost in the shuffle.

I am not shipping this item. It is too bulky and heavy. If you ever picked up one of these ballasts you will see what i mean. It's a shame though since you would save so much.

Good luck!

Casanova1016 · 11-13-2007, 06:51 PM

man i really need them too... if u chnage ur mind let me know soon

11-13-2007, 10:49 PM

Hey Pedro UPS will pack it and ship it and guarantee it since they pack it. Then the buyer can pay you actual shipping charges. Just take it in to the ups store like it is and they will do it up!

Thats my Rev alwasy there to help fellow reefers...

Pedro - GO TO UPS AND DO IT!!! lol

Pedro · 12-13-2007, 09:41 PM
