need to replace 2 - 1,000 watt HID. what do you recommend? How many 38" strips in a 56 square foot room?

That's a lot of fixtures (38 x 17 - 3 strips per fixture ) 8 x 7 room. I'm currently running 2 fixtures in a tent covering 16 sq feet. Led's are @ 50 degree angle which dictates placing fixtures closer together. Approximately 6 fixtures is what I would start with, but no match for 2 1000 watt HID's. Was in Denver and spotted these fixtures being used at a shop and it was quite a impressive view. I'm quite happy with my 2 fixtures. Remember now these fixtures are only 120 watt rating so your output will be diminished some. If money is no real issue then I would have gone with California Light Works my second choice.

H4 for sure, not aware of an H6 bulb. I did convert to HID but with an H4 replacement

I am not sure wgich strip you are asking about. I bought the 300 led's and 600 led's. They are 24 watt and 46 watt. You need to use at least 2 amp for the 24 watt and 3.5 for the 46 watt. The formula to use if I remember it correctly is : Watts=volt X amp So, at 24 watt, you divide 24 watt by 12 volts and you get 2 amps Hope this helps

I wouldn't go with the 55W set. It's overkill for street use and you will get flashed at by other vehicles especially since you do not have HID Approved projectors. 35W HID kits are plenty bright and you will see better with them then the 55W units. Yes, I would definitely purchase the warning/anti-Flicker capacitors. It will help with possible issues and work like a charm. Most of the time you can find them for little over 5 bucks so how can you go wrong. Also there is no 600k set. I am sure you meant to say 6000k. Personally I would stay with 4500 - 5500 k which give you a much whiter and clearer light. At 6000k there is less light output and the color of the light is starting to get more bluish. Still I have ordered them for a friend and she likes them. Once they warm up the blue isn't too bad. All a matter of taste. I would not go beyond the 6000kelvin range unless you want the ricer look.

You would need an additional relay kit - hid pull too much power so look into a relay kit in addition to hid bulbs

Typically street legal vehicles using halogen lights use around 40 for low beam and 60 for high. So your ballast pulls less. If Ur using a bi xenon hid balast only uses 35 on both doesn't change your amp only changes the position of the bulb. So an hid kit if installed correctly will use way less power

Any home improvement store. Another option would be to install led light bulbs with a high lumen count. This would allow for more light with less wattage

First, you will need to look at the wattage of each of the strips (the 24 inch are 8 watts). That's a fairly long distance and you will want a power supply at least 1 1/2 times the total wattage you'll need. I have 6 24-in strips in a row and find the ones on the end are not as bright as the ones closest to the power supply. You may want to consider putting the power supply in the middle of the string if possible and use a "Y" connector to split the power both directions to shorten the total distance.

I used a 150 watt bulb without a issue. By the way, you can get this at Mennards for a lot less.

A 40 watt worked for me -- and I like dim lights to preserve the rods in my eyes. So, you must have a dud if the bulb is tightly screwed and there isn't any packaging blocking the electrical connection. My lamp was packed in a messy kind of paper and I used compressed air to blow all the gunk out of the socket.

You will need the 9006HB4 - you can verify at Sylvania and check out the bulb interchange - just find out what bulbs you have now and buy them HID then replace like normal. Good luck

I would use 100W light bulbs at the least if no other light source is available. Also, the light you use must NOT be of the flourescent type. You only really need the required light around the Chrony ;^)

Here is a link to the most extensive testing I've seen with these lights (although the link is discussing the 300 LED version, so you'll want to do your own calculations based on these numbers.) Basically the spec sheet states .24 watts per LED. Of course you'll have to take into account the voltage drop, and with 20M of them you'll definitely want to look into dual-feeding to keep consistent brightness/color value... but all of that is explained in the link below much better than I can do here. Hope that helps! http://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/19413/why-doesnt-my-5050-led-strip-draw-as-much-power-as-i-expect

You will need at least 2 for sure. I have a 30" tank and one just barely does it. If I had room for another one I would put acsecondbon the tank to get better light at the bottom.

You will need to purchase two light bulbs. We are now using standard 60 watts in ours. You may want to read manufactures suggestion first.

It's best to have too much than too little air movement. Not knowing how many lights you have (say 5 600w) with this set up I would go for at least an 8 inch duct fan. Also, get a brand name - they last forever. Hope you get it going :)

Currently there is no replacement. There are LED bulbs that fit that base, but the brightness isn't near what you need for night driving. HID is the next best thing, but expensive.
