Can my 430 run 2 (24") t-5 and 2 (24") VHO together?

You can mix them but, the load of 4 lamps might be one too many when 2 of the 4 are T-5 HO lamps. If they all flash on and then off, three would be the max. I think it will work with 4.

Please share your results.

It will be a while before I try, but thanks Andy for the quick reply!
