Lumatek digital ballasts control start phases and voltage output via microprocessors which improve lamp performance and less energy is wasted as heat. Even in long term operation the LUMATEK 250W Digital Ballast will only become sightly warm and has full circuit protection including open/short circuit, over temperature, over/low voltage, end of lamp life/rectification and EMI suppression.
Selecting the Super Lumens (SL) switch setting on Lumatek ballasts boosts power output to HPS lamps by 10% increasing luminosity and PAR/PPF levels. We do not recommend dimming or boosting MH lamps which should be matched with the same power setting (eg. 250W lamp at 250W and 150W lamp at 150W setting).
