Uri A4

[Insane Reefer]

VHO is sort of confusing me. If someone could take a moment and tell me what I could do with a "URI A4", I would be very glad of it.
URI makes a 24" 75w VHO, and I'd like to use these - I've been told that this unit will run up to 440 (4@110).
Can these be mix or match bulb watts and lengths, or is it just multibles of the same wattage? And can one run just one 75w bulb, or say 3@95w?

Please help me out.
Thanks!!!

Hello? Anyone out there?

I believe you can mix and match as long as you don't exceed 440w and 16 feet total bulb length.

That would be awesome - a ballast you can grow into...

What do you homebrew 'Rat?

 

[AZDesertRat]

Ales and wheat beers mostly. I keep 4 corny kegs on tap all the time.

Groovy - and the reef is just feet away, lol

I brew honey mead, and in process of ice distilling a wee bit to see what happens

My brewing buddy has a guest bath he can't even get into. Its full of fermenting meads, stouts, porters and wines. I can't wait a year or two to drink my creations!

lol!
After about 6 months, you can usually drink mead - meads weren't really created with aging in mind (read drunken vikings/celts), and IMO, most meads have about 2 years in the bottle before they start to loose their flavor and/or start turning...
