check out this web site I found it's called mini sun 250 hps it has 28,500 lumens. It's a HID light It cost only $165. How does this sound? http://www.littlegreenhouse.com/accessory/lights2.shtml

insidesun has them about the same cost but with a remote ballast which is better IMHO. the ballast being seperate reduces heat generated by having it outside your grow area. Also prolongs the life of the bulb IMHO.

i've got a buddy that uses the hydrofarm 400W HPS version of this light....he got the air-cooling upgrade for his....it came with a lense and a 4" fan that mounts directly to the top of the reflector....you just run some dryer duct and yer good to go and air-cooled....a remote ballast would be better, but if you go for the air-cooled option the heat won't be an issue....
