luckyheo Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Hi, Does anyone know the make/model of this ballast? I can't find it anywhere online... Thanks, Ban Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Don't recognize it. I'm guessing it's a ballast for a 150 or 175 W metal halide? If so I would bet you could replace it with an electronic one, Lumatek is my preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+dapettit Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 what wattage are your bulbs ? Do you know the fixture mfg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyheo Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 unfortunately I don't know its mfg, I got it used from another person... I checked the bulb showing 250w double ended, and I bought an IceCap ballast but it doesn't fired... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyheo Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 one more thing, it says HID ballast on original. I did some research and bought me an electronic ballast. It shouldn't matter right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 its an odyysea ballast (i had the same one, and it sucked) you can buy a new one (its working for me right now) here http://shop.aquatraders.com/External-250W-Metal-Halide-Ballast-p/59041.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
