Euro T-Bars

Would the 24" T-Bars they sell in Europe work in North America's 115V sockets if one of those 220 to 115V converters was used.

Something like this:

The only official line you will get from us (due to the potential of third party electrics being involved) is that the Euro i bars are 220V its up to the user to plug the I bars into a safe and suitable supply, we can not comment on whether the supply you link to is either safe or suitable, you will need to contact the distributor of this unit seperately.

If the question is will we supply the I bar, then the answer is yes.

Hi

I checked this - YES

our ballasts can be operated at 220...240V at 50Hz and 60Hz

Only thing you should check: Are these devices protected against high inrush currents?
One ballast draws usually 40 ... 60A in the first miliseconds!

Thanks,

See now there's something GHL should get there name on, instead of waiting for North American ballast manufactures to produce the ballast, GHL should start supplying a converter.
