Alright, I hope I get some replies because I tried at Icmag to no avail plus there isn't really a lot of traffic in the Grow Setup forum so yeah... Here's my shot in the dark.

Well if anyone remembers me saying something about putting two lights in one reflector in the Indoor Growing forum, I'm having trouble figuring out how to mount the second one. The only thing I can really think of is somehow finding a replacement mounting bracket and using pipe strapping to attach it on top of the one that's already on my reflector. I'd run the pipe strapping underneath the mounting bracket that's already on there and fasten it with a bolt and nut. I'd end up two holes for a mogul at each end. I figure this would be the most efficient way of doing it. My 150 HPS security light that I want to add has a medium based mogul so I'd have to switch it out for a large one. If there were a metal worker in the house I'd glady pay that person to make me some sort of mount as I don't have the tools to do so myself. Here's some pics, advice would be GREATLY appreciated. I really want to do this. It would make my lumen output almost optimal at 4000+ lumens a square foot. Peace. -newguy

True that. I'm not sure if it's universal but I kinda doubt it considering it's horizontal in the security light plus it's a security light. So would you say hang it under the reflector or how should I do it? Wouldn't that just eat some of my lumens? I'd fucking LOVE to integrate it into my metal halide but if it's just gonna make it more inefficient there isn't really a point. Makes me kinda sad really, considering it's now probably as useless as the failed and half baked idea of doing it in the first place. I think sometimes I just over analyze shit too much but you can't blame me for wanting the perfect environment. Wait, can you? -newguy
