400 watt HPS Grow Light Ballast Kit

Hey I have been reading over this forum for a couple months and have decided to start growing, I have 2 plants in my closet under 3 150 watt cfl lights... They are growing incredibly slow after looking at some of the other plants on the forums. So I have decided to invest in a new light, i was looking over ebay and found this growing kit... I dont want to pay over 200$ so i was going to make my own reflector. Anyone think this is worth the money? http://cgi.ebay.com/400-watt-HPS-Grow-Light-BALLAST-KIT-MH-175-250-600-1000_W0QQitemZ120379653056QQcmdZViewItemQQptZHydroponics_Seed_Starting?hash=item120379653056&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72:1205|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50
