Question DE to Se?

Is it possible to convert my aqualight pro light fixture that runs 2 DE Mh bulbs, to run 2 SE*mogul base socket instead. So I can run 20k*250 watt radium bulbs ballast are 250watt HQI.

Thanx guys

Its possible but you will have to do some cutting of your fixture as SE bulbs are bigger than double ended bulbs as well as the sockets they use.
