Dimmable T5 Ballasts important announcement
Some important news for all you dimmable T5 ballast fans!
GHL have just released their AC dimming power bar which we get into stock for dealers this week What this unit does is vary the AC output of the plug sockets on the new dedicated power bar. When used in conjunction with a certain type of special but readily available ballast you have the most easiest and affordable method of dimming T5HO lamps. This will not work on standard ballasts or MH ballasts. Now before you all jump off your sofas and rush out to buy ProfiLux if you have not already got one, we need to test this first At present GHL have tested a 39w ballast we sent them under stepped down 110 voltage, but we need to test this live over in canada. We have imported the dimming strips and the specially required fast strike T5 end caps and will get on with full product testing this coming 14 days. If successful we will be able to provide dimmable ballasts for the first time ever in all useful wattages not just 54w. Please watch this space for news! Note - ONLY OUR dealer list will carry the ballasts!! Last edited by Aqua-Digital; 05-10-2009 at 11:39 PM. |

As these prices are in USD I would more than happily market them at that if you wish
the other point is that they are not the correct ballasts for this type of dimming. All will be revealed |

Hi
if you ordered it from a stock holding dealer they would of received it yesterday. No F/w update required works on a 1-10V port |

1-10v? It doesn't connect like the other power bars into the L-Ports? This throws a wrench into things

I'd love to get my hands on a ballast that will run 24W bulbs with this feature...
