I have the opportunity to buy or trade for an Odyssea MH/PC pendant light fixture to be used over a frag tank.
I have read that some of the Odyssea fixtures have a reputation for being a potential fire hazard. This particular pendant has a 175w MH lamp flanked by two PC bulbs. In this case, the PC bulbs would not be used. It's a 20" fixture. It's been in service with other reefers for about 2 years already.
Does anyone have any feedback on this fixture?
Can you tell by the pictures if it is a magnetic or electronic ballast?
Any help would be appreciated.
