I have to get 5 1000w lights.
I want to make sure i'm getting everything because in the past I have bought the complete kits but after pricing out everything on line made me realize how much they were making off of me.

So
I am going with this
5 Quantum ballasts 1000w
5 24"batwing or the Adjust-a-Wing Medium w/mogul (not sure yet)
3 mh blue bulbs
2 hortilux bulbs.

I think I just need the socket and cord from light to ballast.

Also is switching from MH to HPS as simple as switching bulbs or would I need to do something.

Also does it hurt the bulbs life buying it with the dim switch?

Here's where I'm going to....
