Thanks for the response. I thought it would have been MH's. I've been thinking about upgrading my lights, hence the reason for the question. Thanks again.

Did one of your sockets "break" on the ballast? If so, I thought one of my sockets "broke" when I first received it. For some reason, my LED's would not turn on. I unscrewed, and took the ballast cover off to find that one of the inner prongs (the female end) of the socket came out of place. It wasn't broken at all. I just had to slip the end back in place and it worked fine. When I pushed the LED plug into the socket, the female end wasn't lining up correctly so I pushed it out of its place with the plug. I still have had absolutely NO PROBLEMS with this fixture or ballast. Everything I have in it is still original and nothing has happened. The fans are also working fine.

Yes, he is VERY GOOD at answering your questions and getting back to you. Check out is rating on e b a y, it's really good. If you want to send me your e-mail address, I would be happy to send you some pictures of my setup...that goes for anyone in this forum. I was very very very nervous and skeptacle about buying a light fixture like this for so cheap, but I am very very very VERY PLEASED with it! I hope everyone has the same experience that I have had with mine!

:help:
I am switching my lights from 192 watts of pc to 480 watts of a halide pc mix. I purchased the odyssea lights from an auction. Received the lights 2 weeks ago &now am ready to set up.
There is no directions of how to use the ballast. I never used one before so I could use a little help please..
I think all the plugs go into the ballast, then ballast plugs to into the surge or wall. Is this correct?
Thanks in advance
Linda
