I have the Advance REL-4P32-SC that Burnabyreefer had said to use in his original thread on overdriving. I believe these are true electronic ballasts.
That sounds right. As I said those Hometown ballasts were not the right thing to use, and I am sure the light output was no better than hooking them up normally.

Sorry Bob, I think your incorrect. I hooked one up OD and had 4 at NO going beside it and you could see an obvious diffrence in the light output of the bulb

That of course is always possible. I have looked at very few OD setups, and never did a comparison. I do believe, however, that those ballasts are not in any way true Electronic ballasts. You do not need a transformer that weighs a ton in an Electronic ballast. I will remain suspicious, and untli somone proves me wrong about that I will stay suspicious. I just installed a Workhorse 5 in Alan's fixture. That for sure is electronic, and totally different.
