Your wishes have now come true
The GHL dimmable power bar has now been fully tested and released for sale!!!
This unit plugs into a 1-10V port and for control and takes its power from any wall socket.
Your ballast then plugs directly into the AC socket on the power bar and you have immediate control over the AC dimmable ballast.
For those who do not (yet) have a Profilux, sorry the unit has been internally engineered only to work with GHL equipment.
if you are looking for a controller just to run this then the GHL profiLux Light II controller will cater for your needs in this respect.
So what ballasts does this control?
Well the power bar can actually control any devise that works on AC dimming this includes pumps (note - we can not test all pumps so it is up to the user to try what works).
In regards to ballasts the ones we have tested are
Philips Advance mark 10's
AC dimming ballasts are also made by Sylvania and others just makes sure the dimming range is 1% to 100%.
One of our dealers is carrying the ballasts right now www.reefconcept.com but others will follow suit.
Set up guideline (Thanks Lorin for testing the devise)
*****T5HO lamp end caps - These must be of the fast strike style, which of course we can supply our dealers with, if you do not use these the lamp will not fire correctly*****
for Advance mark 10 - set the min range of the 1-10V at 1.5V
Dimming curve is most effective from 0-50% this gives you a nice curve, after 50% you gain about 10% more intensity.
