You should be able to use the WH7 you just have to put two 24watt bullbs in series....then you will have 48 watts per red Wire.....with this configuration you can run 8 24W T5's
This has worked for me in the past with a different ballast....worth a try....and tony if you want to get some WH5's let me know I can get them cheaper with my company!!

Oh ok do each pair in series, I see. Actually wouldn't this still technically overdrive the lamps slightly, since the ballast is 220W, and 8x24 (or 4x48) is only 192W?
Dang, I might have to try this. Ok, I'm totally ordering 8 reflectors and 16 sockets now.  At least it would be an economical way to get 8 t5's going, if it's better to move to 2xWH5's, I could make that move down the road.
