Need a good deal on one of these ballast either in 150W or I can upgrade to a 250W hopefully. I measured and these ballast will fit in my existing box. My cheap chinese one gave out and my fish in my 46 Bowfront are living in a Blue Actinic hell. :)
Thanks

Looks like I need the ballast for a 150W instead, I did not realize the sockets were different fo DE 250W. Good news is I have 2 10K 250W Hamilton MH bulbs for sale now :)

Rather than PM back everyone who asked me about these, here's the info on the ARO I have.
The ballast is the same one sold on Hellolights.com and is designed for 150w HQI or 175w MH. Here is a link to it...

I paid $95 plus shipping, but I'd sell it for $85 plus shipping. It is still brand new in the box. I only hooked it up to test it but never used it again. Only bought it a couple months ago.
The bulb I bought for $70, I'll sell it for $50 if buying the ballast. It too is brand new, only hooked up to test.
I also have a couple 250w mh magnetic ballasts bought at the same time from Hellolights and are still in the box. I got lazy and never got around to retuning them... just another bright idea project that I never started ;)
