im in the process of designing my new 4x4x30 cube and will be switching from my usual PFO ballast to electronic ballasts. what do you all consider the best 400W electronic MH ballast, and better yet, where did you find the best price? seems like choices are pretty limited and most places are out of stock?
thanks

I have the ice cap 250 elec and they are great dead quit and really dont get that hot I got mine from Marindepot.com
 
I bought a Bluewave ballast/reef optix III/Pheonix 14K combo deal from ReefGeek.com. At the time they had the best deal and I was very happy with their delivery and follow through. Worth checking out.

just be carefull with bulb selection and ballast compatibility. i bought ice cap ballasts and found out the hard way some bulbs wont fire on their ballasts. i used evc ive also read that xm bulbs do not work well with ice caps. i am happy with the ballasts as they run cool and make no noise. also the customer service is very good. i bought at marine depot they are great. good luck
