I don't know about 75%... I upgraded all my 1000's to 1000w DE and saw 15-20% but 75% is just exaggerated.

Hey rollitupers,


I'm moving away from my LED grows back to traditional HID lighting. I have concerns with RF interference.....that being said, what is the absolute best 600w ballast (digital(if RF isn't out of control) or magnetic.) money isn't a concern. Trying to find the best of the best. Will buy 2. Let me know what y'all think.

Running two of these right next to a cable box, and wifi routers. Works like a charm, no interference at all.
