OH! NOOO! I just fried my t5 ballasts!

I was taking the canopy off and unpluged the fixtures from the remote ballasts without turning them off:sad2:momentary laps of reason

Hard Rock you still have that 48 PC layin around or is it on the planted tank?

I don't see how you could have fried your ballast that way. Is the ballast or the bulbs that have a problem?

I agree with tomoko,, try reseating the bulbs.

Was it an IceCap? If so, then yes, you could have damaged it.
