The Lumatek line is the premier electronic ballast (also referred to as “digital ballast”) on the market because it delivers on promises of energy efficiency, higher lumen output, lighter weight and reliability. The Lumatek electronic ballast (e-ballast) produces up to 30% more lumens than a standard core and coil (magnetic) ballast while drawing less electricity. The output is generally the highest in its class, and the reliability of these ballasts has
been unsurpassed. igrowhydro.com has a variety of voltages to choose from!
been unsurpassed. igrowhydro.com has a variety of voltages to choose from!The internal components make Lumatek more than just another electronic ballast, but a sophisticated “E-Ballast” that actually senses the type of bulb, (MH or HPS) as well as calibrating its voltage to drive specific brands of lamps. This results in a softer start and higher output over a longer period than traditional magnetic ballast types.
Why choose an electronic ballast over a core-and-coil (magnetic) ballast?
- Fast Start Up – The Lumatek e-ballast reaches full potential in under 1 minute. Magnetic ballasts typically take 20 minutes.
- Small Compact Design – A Lumatek 600 watt ballast weighs less than 10 pounds compared to over 40 pounds for magnetic ballasts.
- Cut-off Circuitry – Each ballast has a removable fuse to protect against power surges.
- Fully Interchangeable – Lumatek ballasts can light both High Pressure Sodium (HPS) and Metal Halide (MH) bulbs.
- Completely Silent – You would have to put your ear up to the ballast before you could detect the softest sound.
- Produce Less Heat – Lumatek ballasts are only warm to the tough. The ballast can be in the growroom!
- More Lumen Output – 20-30% more lumens outputted, 8-15% brighter than other brands. More light equals more yield!
- Lumatek also offers a three year replacement warranty!
It is easy to see how the Lumatek electronic ballasts have become the market’s most popular and best E-ballast. The Lumatek E-ballast is a performance leader by being the most reliable electronic ballast on the market!
