Description

The LUMii BLACK 600W Magnetic Ballast is a metal-cased, magnetic ballast. Supplied with a flying IEC lead, this ballast enables you to add any reflector with a universal IEC socket.

It’s simple to start growing, just add a reflector and a lamp with the same wattage as the ballast. Use the LUMii BLACK 600W Magnetic Ballast to power either Metal Halide (Grow Stage) or High Pressure Sodium (Flower Stage) lamps.

The well vented metal-case ensures the ballast runs cool and quiet.

What is a ballast?

A ballast is the electrical component comprising of an ignition, choke and capacitors housed in a box. These are necessary to run and light a HID lamp. In a fluorescent lighting system, the ballast regulates the current to the lamps and provides sufficient voltage to start the lamps.

During lamp starting, the ballast must briefly supply high voltage to establish an arc between the two lamp electrodes. Once the arc is established, the ballast quickly reduces the voltage and regulates the electric current to produce a steady light output.

Warnings:

Lights driven by the LUMii BLACK 600W Magnetic Ballast are known as High Intensity Discharge, or HID lights. These kinds of lights give off large amounts of heat. The lamp itself becomes extremely hot. Never, ever touch the bulb when it is on or has been on.

When using an HPS or Metal Halide lamp for the first time, leave the lamp on for at least an hour.
