Default Switching HQI Magnetic for Electronic Ballasts - Anybody?

How hard is it to do? I have an Aqualight Pro & Aquamedic pendant & thinking of switching out all 4 ballasts to electronic ballasts. Do I have to rewire my hood & pendant or is it just a straight ballast swap out of my ballast boxes? Anybody have any experience doing this with reef lighting? A friend mentioned capacitors & such in the hood that need to be bypassed. Not sure how involved this project would be.

Thanks for any advice.

Anthony
