Need a Nano ballast

[sohal1025]

Came home today a smelled something burning and noticed lights were out on the 12gal. JBJ. Looks like the ballast has died.
Anyone have one to sell?

Had the same thing happen today....But it was the dryer. Yay more money to spend

Maybe I will even just replace it with a MH or something.

Burning is probably the ballast, but I'd check just to be sure. Unplug it, then plug it back in, and if it goes on for 5 seconds then off, it could be the bulb. Happened to me, and I replaced one of the two bulbs, and it fixed the problem...however the other one just burnt out yesterday

I have a 32w? compact ballast?

Would that work on this one? The ballast does not say anything on it. The lights say 24watt on them.

BTW-The fans are still running, which is powered by the same ballast.

Like I said, check the lights then, thats exactly what mine did, lights on for 5 seconds, then off while the fan stayed on. Replaced bulb, ran fine (they werent burnt out, but on their way out at the time). I'm not saying it is the bulbs, but wouldn't hurt instead of replacing what wasn't needed.

I dont know if it would work It runs a single 32w? cp bulb

I will take it apart and pull the lights out then put back together and see if that makes a difference.
At this time the lights would not come on for even a second.
I thought that it might be more than a bulb cause I smelled something butning when I first noticed this. The smell definately is coming from the ballast.
