Like fine tuning a high-performance race car, your ballast can make all the difference.
Whether you're installing a new fluorescent system, or upgrading an old one, it's a good idea to pay as much attention to the ballast as it is to the type of lamps you plan to use.
After all, a high-quality ballast can greatly increase the light output of your fluorescent tubes, dramatically reduce lighting power costs, save precious energy, prolong lamp life, reduce lamp end-blackening, and even allow you to use a wider variety of lamps.
Consider the H&H Electronic H.B.F. 1.14-1.2 ballast, for example. It will power either one, two, three, or four F32T8 lamps. With its ballast factor of 1.14-1.2, it will increase the lumen output of a T8 tube by as much as 29%*. Hence, with the H.B.F. 1.14-1.2 ballast, a lamp with a lumen rating of 3050 will actually deliver nearly 3500 lumens!
The Electronic H.B.F. 1.14-1.2 is ideal for:
Manufactured under rigid quality control standards, all H.B.F. 1.14-1.2 ballasts are covered by an exclusive five-year factory warranty.
