FS: Hamilton Light Canopy

makreef · 04/08/2011, 12:58 PM

We have recently broken down our tank and we are having difficulty getting any bites on our Hamilton Light Canopy.

It is: 2, 14K MH 400w & 4 actinic 65w, linear -- one ballast is out.

We have been asking $400 but there has been no interest here or on CL. Any thoughts/interest? Is the price too high? We purchased it just over 2 years ago for over $900.

Anyone needing lights interesting in making an offer?

Thanks, all.

I think your asking too much for a used item that doesnt even properly work..

I'm with Dan. I had to sell a similar fully working fixture for $250 about a year and a half ago. It was a dual 250W instead of 400W which made it better in some ways.

48" light fixture with 400watts mh x2 is an over kill imo, therefore the resale value will be even less than a 250w x2.
