    800w is more than 600w so yes to the question also you can get a 400w closer than a 600w
    what extraction?

    no point adding 200w if it's already hot

    Could look into getting a QB to go with your HPS?

    Invisible sun have their boards for 200 squid. Supposed to be a replacement for a 500w HPS. Plus cheaper leccy
