This is the first of your videos I've seen. Subbed! Love your personality, use of proper terms, and getting right to the point.

One thing wrong. Always start from the head to the ballast! make sure all the head cables hooked up correctly. Also, never leave a HMI head cable over 1.2Kw coiled up; this causes a inductive load and will fuse the cable from high heat.

Sorry, but lots of mistakes in the info. Should have an experienced gaffer or HMI tech read the script first.
