 Re: Got em in!
I'll do it, an bbb can you post a picture of your brackets for the lights cause these ain't got nothing on the side unless I drill a hole through the housing which I don't mind. Thanks.

 Re: Got em in!
Gotta drill the holes and use washers and lock nuts. I bought the zinc straps from Home Depot and cut them to length.
If you add capacitors to each light, you can run 6 HPS lights with the Honda 2000.

 Re: Got em in!
I also built a ballast box to house all the guts of each light. The housing on those lights is brittle.

 Re: Got em in!
Alright I'm starting mine tommorow, thanks a lot for the pictures and info about all of it. What did you make a ballast box out of? I'm guessing plastic conduit boxes.

 Re: Got em in!
Open up each light and make sure everything is tight. I have seen some econo lights with loose ballast that will cause the housing to bust. I used 1.25x 1/8 aluminum flat bar and made my brackets. If your lights don't have capacitors you can add them to lower amp draw on start up but with that few of lights probably want have a problem. Also make sure to put a little silicon where the bulb and socket come together to keep the bulb from coming loose.
