It's fine on RC.. Where is the same disclaimer here? There isn't one.

So...what kind of ballast is it and how did you mount it ?
|
Victor. It was the same electronic ballast mounted onto the back of a 90 gallon tank's wooden hood. Sound familiar? I didn't think that it put out enough heat to do any damage. Well guess what. It did. I was wrong.

I hope it wasn't mounted inside the hood beside a MH....

Hmm.. I'll keep that statement in mind Victor. I am not that dumb. Period. If that was an intentional insult towards me, then take it off the board. period.
I know that if I try something that isn't the normal use for an electrical product I read about what can and can't be done. I look for what the voltages/amperages could be and if they are hazardous. Saftey first. If I am instructing someone else how to do something I make sure they have the knowledge to work safely with electricity. I make sure that I understand that it will work 100% confidently if I have not done it personally. I have watched people be careless around electricity. Guess what. They paid for it in one way or another. Burns, injuries. Ever see a 220 lb man get thrown by electricity? Ever see the burns fom high voltage? If you have I am amazed at how little concern and thought about saftey that has been shown here. Your value on this accident was a couple of frags.. What happnes when someone with no experience with electricity hurts themselves or worse??? Will you step up and take responsibility?
