Just to compare (and I know a lot of guys will say that these numbers don't mean anything but they actually do to a certain extent) BUT,
150 Watt HPS = 16,000 Lumens
500 Watt Halogen = 9,500 Lumens
But I see what skippy is saying, If you had enough generator to run all them halos you have way more than enough generator to run 6 150 watt HPS. Something to think about.... 4 400's

Just to put it this way I have 6 150's on my boat and I want more but that might just be me I would go anywhere from 8-10 with 150's but thats just imo.

4 400's is all you would ever need. Some people on this sight keep talking about them things being too bright. That's the craziest thing I ever heard. NO SUCH THING AS TOO BRIGHT. If you are thinking about HPS you should consider 4 400's. Going to cost you the same as 6 or 8 150's but less wiring and less things to go wrong

Yeah I forgot about that little part of it. But even with 3 400's he would have enough light.

It should but it will be about as maxed as you want to run it.
