Why is my light dim?
I have a NOVA extreme pro 72" fixture, the left side is visibly dimmer than the right side and the bulbs are only a few weeks old. Both sides have the setup of bulbs. looking for any ideas as to what might cause this?

Pull all bulbs out and switch sides. See if it follows the bulbs or not. If it doesn't, then you probably have ballasts that are going bad.

Ballast is likely the problem.
Contact Current and ask them what they think. http://www.current-usa.com/about |
