looking for an alternative ballast to an icecap 430 that is smoked. as we all know icecap is out of business and replacement icecap ballasts are few and far between. i run 6' vho actinics with my halides and have no interest in t5 or led systems. just looking for a ballast that can run 2-4 6' vho bulbs. any help would be great. thanks
I think your choices are limited. Coralvue makes what you need for around $150 though, I have one myself.
Advance and Fulham make VHO ballasts but for either single bulbs or 2x4' bulbs from what I could find.
you can get them from coralvue for a reasonable price still. you can also send it into coralvue for repair i think they charge $60 for repairs sometimes $90 if its bad then when you get it back to put a 1 year warrenty on the ballast again so at least if it breaks again in a year the repair is free... just an option.
