Here are few things to know about ballasts while you're looking around.
- The ballasts available with a few options. We have digital ballasts, metal halide ballasts, high pressure sodium ballasts, and switchable ballsts that run both hps and mh lamps.
- The 1000 watt ballasts perform best in large reflectors, and the light will cover roughly a 4 ft x 4 ft tray for plants that love light, and an 8 ft x 8 ft area for most other plants.
- Digital ballasts perform very well. They can make the lights perform better and brighter. Plants grow larger and faster under digital ballsts over magnetic ballasts.
- A 1000 watt light system (that's the lamp and the ballast) can put out around 3500 BTU.
- The magnetic ballasts may hum. The digital ballasts are silent.
- Most ballasts operate well on either 110 volts or 240 volts.
