Digital ballasts might be all the rage, but magnetic ballasts are not just old-school, they’re hard-core. Economically priced, the Sun System Hardcore Ballast is UL listed, rated at 600 watts on 120 (switchable to 240) and its compact design not only saves space, but also runs cool, to increase the longevity of the capacitor and ignitor. Throw in rubber feet to reduce noise and vibration, and wiring rated for 150C and you’ve got a ballast that will give you many years of quiet, powerful, trouble-free service.

Pro-tip: Add a 600 Watt HPS Ultra Sun Bulb and an Econo Wing Reflector and you’ve got a lighting setup that delivers value and hardcore dependability.
