M-250 R2 with brand new MH ballast!
Got this today in the mail, er post office. Spent a good amount of time putting it together.

And look! I didn't use ANY wirenuts! I used those wire crimps, I bought a pack today after I Got the package at the post office. Used those instead of wire nuts.

The capacitor is a LITTLE lose, sturdy, but just a little loose.. I need to find a way to keep that capacitor on there.

Also I replaced refractors, changed it to this drop lens refractor that Darren sent me long ago.

How is the setup of the ballast? I tried to keep the wires neat, and because this is multi-tap, they had lots of wires hanging off the ballast with caps on it. (Even the 120V, just the 480 was stripped already)

This is gonna be a permanent setup. I am gonna take a pic of it on in a bit, and lit with 175w MV!

Nice. as for keeping the cap in place, wedge something in between the cap and cap bracket like a peice of plastic or cardboard

HERE is a more recent update of the wiring, which is much neater.

Not a whole lot neater. All you did was add ties. Really it's about the same.....
