Dear knowledgeable forum members! Through reading a lot of posts, it seems that you all have a pretty good idea of what you're talking about!

I need SERIOUS help please! (Not in the medical sense, I hope).

I bought a 100W, 10 tube phillips canopy and it's not powerful enough. I want to upgrade to a minimum 160W reflector tube bed but have been told that the max output my bed will produce is 100W (doh!). How can I (if at all) upgrade the electrics to accommodate 160W tubes? Would it be cheap enough or should I just part-ex it (if that's possible????) or sell it to buy my 160W output?

Thanks!
