it seems that i didnt make myself clear on this. i have a few grows under my belt. both indoor and out. have used both hid's and cfl's. vance you are on target with what im looking for in an answer . it has been about 20 years since i used an hid system. at that time i had 400 watt mh and and hps sun circle. in those days the ballast didnt last very long. thus the reason i was looking at the 1 with magnetic ballast with life time warranty. i have no experience with digatle ballast. only what i have read on this board . with what vance fish brought to the light about blowing bulbs. i think that reliability out ways versatility and 30 % more light and longer bulb life and all the other hype that goes with the digital 1. anyone ells got any in put on this subject?
driftersmokinjo Reviewed by driftersmokinjo on . im so confused lol trying to decide which light to purchase. my options are a digital ballast with 3 year replacement and 2 year pro rated warranty and the other is a magnetic ballast with a life time warranty. my question is; is the digital ballast as a general rule gona last long enough to justify it over the magnetic 1 with the life time warranty. the dig im looking at will run hps and mh bulbs while the magnetic will only run hps . help me out here fellas im bout to make a decision i hope i will not regret Rating: 5
