This thing cost me a mint and my budget is sooo tight that this could spell the end of the whole she-bang for me. What should I do?????
1) learn how to fix it yourself - all parts should be substituteable ( is that even a word ? lol ) with something off the shelf
2) sell it now while it still works 100%
3) get a MH tar ballast ( less than 50 beans at a electrical supplier ) as a backup in case the LED unit goes down - MH bulbs are pretty cheap if you look around so you dont have to get that right away
