If you can get your hands on a lumatek digital ballast do,they rock,don't really know the jb brand,
but i do know lumatek,they can give up to 27% more lumens per watt when using a hps bulb,you get a
normal conversion when using mh bulbs,they run cool enough too,spend the extra cash on a digital
ballast you'll be glad in the long run!!!!
Happy Gardening!!
