Bring my eggplant plant indoors for the winter

My eggplant plant has been a a great producer I hate to lose it. Has anyone ever transplant one indoors. What kind of light would I need. would I use Mels mix in a large
pot.
Anyone?

     Thanks

For good results you will most likely need a heated greenhouse because eggplants like it HOT. They also like more than 10 hours of sunlight a day. I love eggplant and pretty much gorge on it in season. Good luck!
