    I have one metal halide pendant, and now that I have a bigger tank I need another. I want a mogul bulb pendant that is not a magnetic Ballast. Cheap is good to get me started! any suggestions?

    Woa, as I look around online most pendants dont come with ballast????
    My pendant now has one, it is magnetic which works but i will not buy again because not all bulbs will fire with it. Is there an affordable Pendant for a good price with ballast built it?

    I don't think you are going to find a good quality mogul base with a ballast inside the pendant.

    That said, I love my IceCap pendants. That coupled with the Lumatek ballasts make a great combo.
