My VHO's are toast or the ballast..but either way....

I have 2 250w MH lights.....(that DO work)

Any suggestions on a combo? I did have 4 VHOs firing but wondering what other combos other people had...

Courtney,
My favorite combo is the MH with t-5 for the supplemental lighting.

Ballast is an ARO (not a good one I know but it came with the lights)

Lights are 46.5

Can I replace the ballast?

AROs have been referred to me as bad on more than one occasion but no specific reason stands out. I think its just in comparison to other ballasts out there.

I PMed Greg. I got the ballast working again. Apparently connections had been pulled apart.
