2 lights under 1 reflector - anyone seen anything similar?

Hi, I have a 250w hps and a 150w hps both with separate euro reflectors. I was wondering if anyone's has had 2 bulbs under 1 reflector and how they achieved it. How close can the bulbs be to one an other, is this an issue?
I'm using a dr90 tent and think one reflector bang in the middle will work better.

Regards, Collie

I've seen it done before, pretty simple to stick two (of the same) reflectors together and just stick a few rivets there to make a larger single one.

The one I have is specially made to have two bulbs and has a small fan in built, 3 switches control it all.

Here is one I use by Growlush -

Also, there is splitters which can be used to run two bulbs from one socket (Though I would not suggest them for HPS or MH, but for CFL it's awesome).

Here is the splitter i'm talking about (Except the size of the thread)

Hope this somewhat helps.

I own one of these hoods, except I have the glass in mine to air cool it...it kicks ass.

Though it's big, and I'm using it with a single 1000w, but I've used it with 2 400w bulbs at the same time, worked wonderfully. Just make sure you can cool whatever you end up getting.
