I've got a 3x150w Hamilton MH fixture, and I'm thinking of upgrading to 250w lighting. Besides the new balasts and sockets, is there anything else I'll need to swap out? Would I have to upgrade the wiring in the fixture as well?

Cool, thanks! I've seen 150w and 250w sockets for sale and assumed there was a difference.
Hey Scott usually 250watt sockets r different then 150 watt
250 watt socket

150 watt

150 watt sockets r a push pin style where 250 watt r clamp style.
