I can't find any wiring guide for these.

I am assuming that these are magnetic

I am trying to find the appropriate type of bulb and both need bout 6 foot of wire and bulb holder

I got enough common sense to do basic wiring. I just need to know what gauge wire. I was looking at hellolights.com

&gt;&gt;There should be a wiring chart if not on the outside, on the inside of the wiring end. If you still can't find it call up the manufacture or Granger (they carry them).

&gt;&gt;Yes it is, pulse start.

&gt;&gt;400w single ended. Make sure if you are using this in a vertical application that you use a bulb rated for that and if you are using it for a horizontal application that you do the same. For example, the M58 that I use (250w) on my tank are rated for horizontal use only.

&gt;&gt;Three wire 14awg or 16awg (stranded) would be the way to go.
