Anyone use these ballasts?

Has anyone ever used the Coralife electronic ballasts for VHO? Here is the link... Aqua Buys

Any advice or experience with this product would be appriciated. I am going to purchase 2 of them if there is no bad news about them.

I have used them before. They are decent, but there is definitely better quality out there, for quite a bit less. Check into the PFO 4 bulb VHO retrofit kits. Not only do they utilize better internal ballasts, but you can also control the lamps for a sunrise / sunset effect, and they also have the VHO endcap mounts with them already, so you don't have to use those cheap T12 clips which seem to fail somewhat frequently. Most any major online reef store will carry the product. HTH

Ok i found some different sites with the PFO ballasts but im wondering which site is best and whats the best prices you have found on these ballasts? I plan on doing a 4 bulb vho setup and i like the fact of the 2 power sources to turn on asnd off separate! that is perfect just dont want to pay more than i have to or deal with a store with terrible customer service.
