I know alot of you guys have been concerned with the amp draw of the HPS. If you can get the multi-tap ballastyou could actually run those lights on 240v instead of 120v. This will cut your amp draw in half.

a lot of us run the 2000w inverter generators that dont put out 240v. but i have been reading where a lot are running caps and that cuts the amp draw down considerably!
