    125 for a sunpod is a-o-k with me! depending if it is the 150 or 250 watt.

    What fixture are we looking at? Cause that MH fixture on the right sure isn't the light that's being described.
    First off, HQI is the type of lighting, not a brand. And its not a 2X unit, as there is only one bulb in there. And theres no supplemental PC's either, unless he's throwing that other hood in. Which would be way wrong, as that whole set up pictured on that tank is hack IMHO.
    If thats honestly what he told you, I would skip on this one.
