I can bring to swap Saturday if anyone there is interested, looking for nice zoos, ricordia or cloves that are not the typical fiji or greens, if no trade I would like $30. Prefer not to ship, willing to meet somewhere in the middle, Im in NJ

Chris, Pardon my ignorance but what does this ballast run?
Is it any combination of bulbs up to 220W?
The reason I ask is that I have a small nano reef tank and i was looking to run a series of 4 or 5 13W compact fluros.
Would this do the job?
Cheers Aaron

Aaron, I used it to run 2 96w PC lights, I know people use them to overdrive t5 lights as well, your best bet is to look at the site and get the info from there or contact one of the reps at Fulham, I think there are different config diagrams on their site you can use also. I'm thinking that this ballast may be a bit much for what you are looking to do.

4angel, its very easy wh5 ballast has 4 red wire 1 yellow wire,one black and one white,black goes to 110 volt white goes to neutral.you have 4-13 watt lamps with two pins each take one red for each lamp and connect to one pin,now you have one pin on each lamp not connected take the 4 pins and the yellow wire and connect together,and that should do it dont forget to ground the ballast.
