Coralvue dimmable MH ballast 250w

db_triggerfish · 05/09/2007, 05:58 PM

I did a google on coraluve ballast and a store that has a Dimmable Electronic MH Ballast.Enables the user to dial down the output to decrease energy output and dim the bulb. This is especially useful on hot summer days to curtail tank heat issues. Has anyone used the dimmable version? I have DE bulbs.

Thanks,

I'd also like to know about these ballasts. Can you control the dimming with a regular controller, or does it have to be dimmed manually?
