out of stock items

I just received the Icecap ballast and pendant fixture and bulb that I ordered, but found out that I need a converter plug to hook it up. I'm also interested in an Ocean Runner pump to replace the Rio running my Turboflotor skimmer. Both these items are currently out of stock. When should I check back for them?

Thanks,
Ken
 
Hi Ken,

We should have OceanRunner by end of the week. PFO is coming with a big pallet via Motor Freight, so hard to judge, probably 1 week or less (hopefully). We can always dropship the PFO item too if you want it faster.

thanks
 
Hi Again,

We do have the #74690 EL BOX - FOR ICE MH - NO BALLAST INC.. It's a pfo empty electronic box, you just put in the icecap and wire up and then it's just like a store bought unit. It cost 40 bucks.
 
I was just wondering, should the ballast be completely enclosed like that? I know IceCaps don't get very hot, but will having it enclosed prevent all heat from escaping?

Thanks again,
Ken
 
Also, does the IceCap horizontal pendant need to be mounted lengthwise or perpendicular to the tank? My tank has a three foot by two foot footprint.

Hi Ken,

To date we have not had any reports of thermal issues on the ice cap ballasts. I contacted PFO who makes the enclosure and they feel very confident the ballast will not suffer. The pendant was designed to be installed perpendicular.

Thanks,

Cory
