Well its time i dump the old 400W and I think Im ready for a 1000W and quite messing around
Im gonna go to 1000W. And sicne Im getting a new system, nows the time to decide if I should go with the new technology and get a Digital Ballast. Or should I stay with the magnetic coil type?
Im not worried about the extra cost of the Digi.
I would like to drop ANY cost in electricity.
Less heat to worry about things touching it and burning.
This is what Im looking at. Is it worth the price $550 (w/ added MH bulb, not incld )

or is this just as good $360 (BOTH bulbs incld )

OR is the Old Magnetic type worth staying with??
I belive the 2 Digi Im looking at are just basing it off of name brand. Is Lumatek the best in Digi ballast, compared to Digital Greenhouse?
Is Lumatec "name brand" and Digital Greenhouse "generic Brand"? casue i have no problem paying extra for better quality.
So with price set a side ( i guess) would it be the better choice to pick the lumateck over the Digigreen house?
Ive found 2 types of those also. Each only being about 20-40 cheapier than the Digital version
Thanx for all help and info with this.
