I came across this awhile back when I was looking into the possibility of using a water cooling system to cool down an HID light. Similar to how the water cooling systems work for a computer. I found this...
It comes in a 400w and a 600w version. Atleast that's all I've seen so far. But it's pretty sweet if you ask me.
And I'm sure people will bring up mixing electricity with water is bad news... Well... As long as this has been designed well enough with attention to details in safety, I'm sure it's perfectly safe. I have a water cooling system for my computer and it works perfectly fine with no leaks of any sort. So I would love to give one of these a try.
They are a bit expensive. I didn't look too much into who else might sell these. The website I found was a euro site. They have the 400w systems priced between 325-465 euros and the 600w systems are between 390-490 euros... So just convert that with a currency converter and you have your price in US dollars.
There is another company that is designing another type of water cooled system. It's supposed fit any hood with an 8" flange. They incase the bulb within a glass tube which is then incased in another glass tube. The ends are sealed up and all and the water gets pumped in between the two tubes. They're even designing a water cooled digital ballast.
