IMO.. They waited until everyone had marketed ballasts. Then got top of the line components to build a better and more reliable product. Galaxy is a great ballast. I just think the hydrofarm would be a better company to deal with being they've been around for the duration. Have you seen the Phantom?
GaGrown Reviewed by GaGrown on . Galaxy Digital Ballast feedback??? Looking at investing in the multi wattage digital ballasts. So far, I think the Galaxy 1000, HPS/MH, 400-600-1000 watt settings, can run bulbs at full power or reduced power (does that make bulb last longer?), and supposedly less heat. Not sure which puts out how much, but 1000 watt bulb puts out a lot of heat. Anyway I like the ability to use at any wattage and to use either HPS or MH. With some of my experimenting I need more flexibility. So, since it is a $400 investment, is it Rating: 5
