That's what a 400w HPS (bulb, reflector & ballast) costs over here.

I honestly wouldn't want anything less then 400 for anything. But, it depends on the size of the grow area, not really the number of plants. Like if you have 2 plants in a 4x4 closet, then 150 wouldnt be enough unless you closed it off some. I wouldn't use a 150 in anything more then 2x2 ft area.
