Help Identifying Hamilton Metal Halide Unit

Hi All-A few years back I purchased a complete and lightly used set up from someone. He had it set up for saltwater/coral and I have only used it for freshwater. The lighting is metal halide from Hamilton, so it went into my storage unit and has been there since. It has what I'm guessing are 2 transformer boxes to go with it? Because I'm not using it I'm thinking about selling it, but don't really know much about it. I'm attaching 4 photos here in hopes that someone can tell me more about it. Also, what would be a fair asking price? Thanks

It looks like a Hamilton Reefstar pendant. Not sure of its current value.

That's really good info. Do you think $100-$140 sounds right?

Like anything .. A fair sale is when both the buyer and seller are happy..

Are the lights attached in one unit or are they sitting on top of one another?
