Review: Top shelf - Ive ran the old ballast of every sort until now, I paid 3 bones($300) for this tow years ago, and have been using it since june, so 8 months, almost, for the summer, I was using the 750 watt setting be ause so hot with 1000 watt setting, but using the valuline 435 cfm fan and inline reflector $29 ebay, this is my favorite set up ever. I did lots of reviews, and this orange one sold me, Ive been using it alot on 1000 watt, no problems watsoever, m oblivious to any negatives? I love the color, and gives two cords, one for 220, or 110(reg outlet). Thats a sign of a pro company. Love this!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have 2 brand new 1000w HPS bulbs and not one will fire, this is my 2nd ballast, what am I doing wrong?**
A: You haven't given quite enough information so hard to say for sure.  With 1000W and 600W ballasts from Quantum, I see a sort of two-stage firing.  At first there is a dim, orange light and then fairly quickly the light reaches full strength.  A good way to test the ballast would be to hook up another (known working) ballast to the same fixture and light bulb.  If that fires your ballast was bad.  If it too fails, possibly there is a problem in the bulbs or fixture or the wires leading from ballast to fixture, bulb not screwed in all the way, etc.

**Q: Will this 400 watt ballast work with hortilux mh bulb**
A: If the bulb fits ur hood cover ur fine, the ballets connects to the hood, don't spend a lot of $ on a bulb , I bought one for 10$ still going strong after almost a year! Mh or hp both are fine!

**Q: Does this have RFI shielding**
A: They are the best I have owned regarding lack of radio interference.  That said, I still have added RFI filters before and after the ballast.  Beyond that, I heard a huge improvement in my sound system when I added a PS Audio P3 power supply.  Clearly, my AC is filthy.

**Q: What is the amp draw running on 120v @ 400 watts ?**
A: It should draw about 3.5 amps.  Remember; watts divided gives amps. But there is some inefficiency.

The ballast itself seems nice 1000 600 or 400 watt compatible,it just knows what bulb is there.But the shipping was a little rough mounting tabs bent up dial adjustment knob pulled off but there's a permanent knob behind that.
