What does a metal halide light do to a plant?
Metal-halide light is helpful for plant growth and is often used for indoor plant growing applications. Metal-halide lights produce blue-frequency light. They can provide the temperature , as well as the spectrum of light that encourages plant growth.
What is metal halide lighting?
Metal halide lights are a type of high-intensity discharge light. They're frequently used as grow lights for plants in conjunction with HPS (high pressure sodium) lights. MH lights are better for the earlier vegetative growth stages.
Can a 400 watt high pressure sodium bulb be used in a 400 watt metal halide ballast?
I actually have a 400w hps ballast and I can also use my 400w metal halide bulb in it with no problem. So what your saying is they do, but they dont? the answer is, they dont. You can get universal bulbs hps to plug into a mh ballast they have a miniturized igniter inside the bulb. As I understand it, a 400W metal halide bulb can be used with a 400W hps ballast, but not the converse. A MH bulb has the igniter in the bulb, and the HPS has it in the ballast--which pretty much goes along with your comment above. Apparently the double presence of the igniter in the HPS setup is OK.you can run metal halide in same wattage's but not hps in metal halide systems.you can run such as (same wattage's)250 watt metal halide-400 watt halide ect in hps systems but not hps bulbs in halide systems. they make conversion bulbs to run halide in hps as well and vice versa.
How many leds and watts to replace a 250 watt metal halide?
It depends. The Wattage ratings do not indicate how bright any type of bulb is, just what its power consumption is. In general LED lamps put out more light for the power used than metal halide bulbs, but there is no standard as to how much more. Most lamps indicate their candlepower or 'candela' ratings on the package, and the vary by type of bulb and manufacturer. The 'candela' is the SI base unit of luminous intensity.
Is tungsten reactive with bases?
Tungsten, otherwise known as wolfram, is a metal used in alloys and jewelry. It's pH neutral, and reacts very little to bases.
What is the difference between an HQI metal halide lamp and a regular metal halide lamp?
An HQI metal halide lamp belongs to the family of metal halide HID lamps. Hydrargyum quartz iodide (HQI) lamps differ from standard metal halide lamps in that they are often smaller and are offered in double ended versions and require a special socket. The gasses and metal halide salts used in HQI and standard metal halide lamps are the same.
Can you use 250W metal halide bulb in a 1000W metal halide ballast?
No. The lamp has to match the ballast. The lamp will not ignite if the wrong ballast is used.

The salts of which metal are used in photographic emulsions?
Silver salts (AgCl)

What lights are used to aid the growth of plants?
Metal halide, incandescent, fluorescent and LED are just some of the lights used to provide a light spectrum similar to that of the sun. This will aid in the growth of the plants.
What is iodine used for in medicine?
The most common use is as a dietary supplement, added to table salt. It is also used in a number of medications, and in metal halide lighting systems.
How are halides used in everyday life?
Common salt is a halide.

What is the voltage used for ignitor in boiler?
It really depends on the size but the average is about 24 volts.
