Greetings,
Browsing through ebay and came across a listing for a 450 watt High Pressure Metal Halide light.
And yet Googling High Pressure Metal Halide doesn't help me at all. So what do ya think? Sales gimmick?

Plants need a properly balanced spectrum for growth. In particular, orange light HPS fixtures produce lankly growth with poor leaves. Reports are that this delays the flowering stage. Old fashion metal halide fixtures make a suitable white light, but their light output is low. Orange colored High Pressure Sodium is often used instead because it has higher light energy output needed for flowering.
Now you don't have to choose! Ultra Efficient High Pressure Metal Halide offers the best of both worlds with a light output similar to HPS, it makes 70% more light than a standard 400 watt metal halide bulb.
