Digital/Electronic ballasts are the future of High Intensity Discharge (H.I.D.) transforming. And Lumatek digital ballasts are leading that charge. Lumatek digital ballasts can power both MH and HPS lamps with no need for conversion type lamps. But their best features are their ability to auto-detect between 120v and 240v line voltages and their ability to dim or overclock lamps. More lumen output Up to 30% more lumens output than some old style magnetic ballasts …More light equals more yield. We urge you to test this yourself with a good quality light meter. Be sure to also check how much power the ballast is using with an ammeter as many so called 600w magnetic ballasts now draw up to 750w as standard to try to keep up with Lumatek’s lumen output. More lumens generated per watt of electricity consumed Lumatek ballast have increased efficacy over magnetic ballasts. They lose fewer watts from the power supply to the lamp. The high frequency output results in low power loss at the cathodes in addition to better overall power management. Stable light output Excellent for Pharmaceutical-agriculture, laboratories and other uses where precise regularized output is essential. Fast start-up It reaches full brightness in under one minute; magnetic ballasts typically take about twenty minutes. Completely silent No noise or vibration of any kind Produce less heat. Less heat generated by the ballasts allows cooler running of the environment Cut-off circuitry Cuts off when a short is detected. For ultimate safety. Fully interchangeable Lumatek ballasts can light both HPS and MH bulbs (excluding the 750w which is HPS only). Includes the socket and cord.
