your ballast must be for high pressure sodium and should match the wattage of the bulb,so I think you need to get a 150w hps ballast for your lights to work

Yep, you need a ballast. Take them back and stick with Cfls (Cfls also need a ballast but they are built it, that is what that big bulge at the base of the bulb is).

sounds like you dont know what a ballast is. a ballast looks liek this http://www.progressive-growth.com/prodimages/hps_ballast.jpg

if you just screw a HPS bulb into a regualr socket nothing will happen or you might have even wreck the bulbs.

Well, like they said you just need a new ballast, they aren't that cheap but without one you wasted your money on the bulb...

Sorry to jack your thread nobustincaps, but I am getting so sick of this myspace/facebook generation of chicks who think that just because there are web sites to host pictures of yourself, they are models. YOU ARE NOT A FUCKING MODEL! How self centered are these bitches that think we all need to see a different picture of them every week.

Who died and made you the Board Police?

While I'm at it... why are you attacking the women? I notice you didn't comment on the men who post different pics of hot half naked women they find on the Internet as their Avatars!

You really should MYOB and worry about YOURSELF and not what other people, who are harming NO ONE, are doing with THEIR Avatars!

Desert Sativa- Apparently your narrow-minded and self-centered comments stem from a lack of wisdom. Let me help you: Each person on earth is struggling to get through life; we all have different story. In my opinion, we share certain human traits, like having feelings and wishing to be treated with some degree of dignity. For some, that's the most they can hope for in this life.
When people such as you disparage others for no meaningful reason it tends to highlight your immaturity and the shallowness of your understanding of humanity. Perhaps you are also a bigot and a racist?
