I have a dual 175 watt encased electronic ballast (saves money!). 1 of the connector is connected to a large lumenarc III reflector. This is not a quick disconnect and the ballast do not have individual on and off switches.
Bulbs:
1-175 Reefgrow 20k lightly used for 3 months
1-175 Catalina 14k lightly used for 3 months
1-175 Catalina 14k used for 5 months.
The unit works great, never had a problem. I'll even throw in a hamilton 14k 400 watt for you to trade with others or sell or whatever you want to do with.
I would visit Pacific Garden Supply in San Rafael. They make the Lumenarcs as well as other reflectors. Last I looked, a single 175 elec ballast and Lumenarc A-2 was going for a little under 2 bills.-Jim
I bought this from hellolights with phoenix bulb for less than 200.
but it requires you to wire it up. It was on sale for 105 couple week ago. http://www.hellolights.com/15hlmhrekith.html
I'm thinking of selling my 175 customsealife magnetic ballast that's connected to a housed parabolic reflector with fan. The bulb is a hamilton 14k that's about 6 months old. Let you know if I decide to sell it.
I have a PFO ballast with a quick disconnect to a pendant. Only problem is the pendant does not have the glass shield (i could probably have one cut but ive ran it this way for a couple years with no problems) There is a 10K Auqaline bulb that i can throw in that is about 3-4 months old. I have no idea how much these thigns go for these days but how does 100 sound? PM me if you are interested.
