I gutted an aquamedic aquaspace light with internal tar ballasts. The original size was 4' long with 2X250 plus 1X150 HQI lamps. 150w fired poorly and then 250 on one plug almost caught fire and then tripped breaker. Decided to throw out all ballasts as they were severely degraded from high heat and poor ventillation.
I now use 3 new lumatek remote ballasts with new ceramic holders. I am pleased lamp now weighs 1/3 of original weight, but would like to replace very cheap aluminum reflectors with something better.
Anyone done this before? What would fit that comes as a kit?
Tough question, any suggestions would be appreciated.
