I have been considering upgrading to MH, and had only been looking at electronic ballasts due to energy consumption, noise, and heat output. But I did browse across some of the retrofit kits from PFO, and the prices will make someone think twice! I was wondering if some of you that have them can give me some advice on heat output (and if this is really big deal considering the ballast will be away from the tank) noise (the biggest of my concerns) and power consumption (I also am running two IceCap 440's on the circuit next to the one I'll be putting the MH on. Don't want to start throwing breakers) Does an electronic ballast pull less power? Or is it the other way around?
