    Check to make sure your lamp/lamps are tight in the sockets. My became loose and did the samething. I tighten them up and no problems.

    Is it the same time every night? Does it happen multiple times a night? Could your ballast be overheating and doing an emergency shutoff?

    Happened to me towards the end of my last run. I set my timer to start and end 15 minutes later and it fixed it. It was a regular timer not a digital one, that particular button must be going out on mine but it's fine now, also no Ill affects only 3-4 days til I fixed it

    might be a fucked up timer. or maybe still the ballast? i have a cheap light kit off amazon and the cord is kinda lose in the socket on the ballast from the light and if its not in there just right ill have the same issue as you. wont hurt your plants though. i would be more worried about burning your place down lol
