I have a 400watt Lumatek digital ballast (120V). I've seen people complain about power outages causing problems with air pumps and water pumps etc etc.

What happens during an unattended power outage with a digital ballast?

I only ask, cause I turned mine on for awhile, then turned it off to move it. Few minutes later plugged it back in and nothing happened. I turned it back off, waited. Did some snooping on the lumatek site and it says to wait 20-30 minutes after turning it off (power outage I assume would be included), before turning it back on.

Will it wait till it is ready or time, then turn back on? I don't want to fake one to find out.
