all i use are lumatek duel 600s there better than any digital 1000s MORE BANG 4 YOUR BUCK!!!! and you can cover more space for less money,and you get more lums cuz its 2 600s instead of one 1000 a lumatek digital 1000 only has like 200 more lums then one 600, o yea and they fire hps and mh conversion bulbs, WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK 4????? go with the lumatek duel 600 there the SHIT!!!!!!!! i ordered all mine on ebay they have package deals you get a lumatek duel 600 2 hydrofarm air cooled hoods and 2 hortilux super hps bulbs for 650.00 thats unbeatable, trust me the duel 6 kills a 1000

a lumatek duel 600s is 1 ballast that runs two 600 watt hps or mh bulbs, you can run 1 600 at a time or flip a switch and plug in another cord and bulb 2 run 2 600s, they fire hps and mh conversion bulbs, i use hortilux super hps for flower and sunmaster mh conversion bulbs for veg, no more changing ballasts when you flower

I have 3 600 Lumatek and they are very nice, but I don't know if I'm having bad luck or what but 2 of them have already went out within a couple of months of use. Luckily they have a 5 year warranty and the shop had no problem replacing them with new ones, but its still a pain in the ass especially if I was to have gotten them online. For that reason I would hesitate in getting a dual 600.

I read that electronic ballasts Lumeteck,etc...are not digital ballasts.
What is a true digital ballast? Any links? Thanks
