I'd say fix it up like you originally planned and set it outside for like 4 or so days and just turn it on and let it go, that way you'll know if its safe or not.

Hey guys srry to keep u waitin alot sh it happend anyway i was gunna post da pics yesterday that i was tellin u ppl about so here they are:).

The ballas thats in the pic is not the same as in the old pics as u can clearly see and about dankerz concern of a ingiter its intergated in the ballas also another Q about the ballas/light on the light package it said ONLY USE WITH ANSI S55 BALLASES and mine is only S55 thats all it said. Also as u can replaced the old bulb with a new and better one.

I got 2 fans in the pic to that iam planing to use for a ventalation system i was wondering how do i get the power source(cant use the wall plug cause its only about 1.9 watts and 12v the smaller one may be less #.

That it for know waitin to listen to ALL of your guys/girls:) comments.
THANKS.

I don't for sure if thats what you are thinking...But, DO NOT try to wire that ballast to that lamp fixture. That will not work and is a disaster waiting to happen.
 
the S55 should be the correct ballast. You will need to get a mogul socket for the HPS bulb. What you have there is a household lamp, the bulb shouldn't even be able to screw in to that thing.

you need a 12V adapter for the fans like everyon else said.

Be careful man, don't light yourself up man. Those ballasts have enough juice to kill you man.

The S55 will fit a regular houshold size socket.

Yea man it fits prop...and the electicity store told me i would be fine but iam surprised u guys never seen this before???
 
It really seems like your going through a lot of trouble just for a simple light. If you had just bought a new setup you would have been growing over a week ago. I dont understand why you are doing this. Just invest a couple hundred dollars and you can get a nice lamp and ballast and there will be no wiring or nothing. No worries about burning the house down. Just seems so much simpler to me. What do you think?
