magnetic Ballasts suck.

According to you though you have several of them and they run the bulbs just fine, so my ? is if Mag ballast suck why are you using them?

i tried them and they suck i gave them all to follow reefers. and I got new ICE CAP Ballests. They work way better. ICE CAP T5s ballest the 660 I like even more.

Maybe you can send me the $ to buy IceCap ballasts as you swore they ran just fine on Mag ballasts, just proving my point these bulbs were made to run on there ballasts only
