When gardeners upgrade to a Lumatek Electronic Ballast, they'll see the benefits instantly! From their increased efficiency to their increased lumen output, digital ballasts truly are the next big leap in indoor gardening technology. Compared to traditional magnetic ballasts, Lumatek Electronic Ballasts lose less power from outlet to lamp, provide light at a far more stable level, start up faster (full light in under one minute!), and reduce the noise a system generates by running silently. These incredibly low-weight ballasts also produce less heat, short-circuits trigger a power cutoff as a safety measure, and a dimmer knob adjusts the output level from from as low as 50% all the way up to the Super Lumens setting of 110%! As if all that weren’t enough, this 600W Dual Voltage unit allows growers to power with 120V or 240V with one ballast! Each unit includes a 120v power cord. A 240v power cord is available separately. Lumateks feature a 3-year full, 2-year pro-rated warranty.

Lumatek is the industry's most popular and respected electronic ballast. The Lumatek eballast is a performance leader.

• The Lumatek 1000w has a dimmer knob allowing the light brightness to be turned down, or turned up to the Super Lumens setting.
• Multi-Wattage capabilities (read instructions before use). Ballast powers a 600 watt, 400 watt, or 360 watt bulb at the proper settings.
• Operate either metal halide (MH) or high pressure sodium (HPS) lamps. No manual adjustments are required.
• Get up to 20% MORE LIGHT; faster growth, bigger harvests.
• Unique graduated fin design for more efficient cooling. No cooling fan necessary means fewer moving parts.
• 3 years full + 2 years no hassle warranty.
• Internal resin coating blocks radio frequencies and protects components for a long life.
• External breaker system protects against power surges.
• Generator compatible.
• Cuts off when a short is detected. For ultimate safety.
• Completely silent.
• Comes with Sunlight supply "S" style lamp cord recepticle. Hydrofarm conversion plugs are also available (sold seperatly.
• Lumatek frequently asked questions.

Notes

• Does not include 240V Power cord. Does include a 120V power cord.
• Urban Sunshine orders Lumateks from several vendors so they are always in stock, and each vendor uses their own slightly different box. They are all the same ballast inside the box.

Why Digital Ballasts?

• More Lumen Output - Up to 20% more lumens output than some old style magnetic ballasts ...More light equals more yield.
• Stable Light Output - Excellent for Scientific-agriculture, laboratories and other uses where precise regularized output is essential.
• Fast Start-up - It reaches full brightness in under one minute; magnetic ballasts typically take about twenty minutes.
• Completely Silent - No noise or vibration of any kind
• Produce Less Heat - Less heat generated by the ballasts allows cooler running of the environment. Less heat is less wasted electricity.
• Longer Bulb Life - Lumen output loss over time, with the correct lamp, is dramatically less than with magnetic ballasts.
