ballasts
Hey blaster you have to understand... When anyone in the hobby I know asks me... How are the lights working you bought off the internet? What am I supposed to say?....' Oh they're working great'!?? No. What I say is... The pendants are great! BUT... The ballast doesn't work. I had to buy new ballasts because the Galaxy I bought from you didn't work. You told me you only had one bad experiance making a purchase over the internet, and I figured that it wouldn't happen to me when dealing with you. Anyways lets not ruin a good thread. From the research I did. The GALAXY ballasts should work out nicely. They're supposed to run efficiently, silent, they look nice and seem to get alot of great reviews. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one if I need one in the future. For now I'm using Hqi ballasts. Besides drawing 6.2 amps @120v they seem to work fine. The Galaxy dual 250w is only supposed to draw 4.17amps. I'm sure a Galaxy ballast would be a great choice.
P.s I know., I know, Buyer beware. I just couldn't help myself
