So you are gettting 6 reflectors, and six lamps and the three ballasts? Does this include stand offs to hold the waterproof endcaps? Sorry I didnt read the entire link, crazy kids and on my way to work.

You will need what you are getting, along with the endcaps and standoffs if not included and you will most likely need power cords as most ballasts do not come with cords, get a grounded cord from the hardware store and you are set, well actually you need three cords, one for each ballast.

You will also need extra wire to make your jumpers to connect both ports of the endcap.

Good luck!
