Using a digital can appeal to the power savings, less noise, ability to dim, smaller box, and cooler running temps... BUT be warned, you might be broadcasting radio signals to the world, from your grow rooms! This can cause attention from your respective cable company, even the FCC! Your single digital ballast can be fucking with a lot more than what is seen, or heard. It could be causing interference even if you don't notice much AT YOUR house, it could be jamming up your neighbors stuff, and you may never know until the cable company is standing on your door step, cutting off your internet and saying you have major disturbance that has been tracked right to you! Even if your growing fruit or something, with your digital, this RF interference will cause you a headache like no other. Don't believe me? Google "RF interference digital ballast", read the countless posts of people going through problems. I tell you this, because I wish i was warned before I bought digital shit, and had it happen to me, in a non-legal state. (well really they are all still non-legal, lol) After testing, so far CFL's are safe. Unless you have thousands of them or something? I BELIEVE a magnetic ballast will not cause any of these sort of issues, although if someone wants to chime in and give the thumbs up with experience 100% feel free. Anyway's, I'm kinda repeating what I've been talking about in 2 other threads, Just figure the new guys should REALLY REALLY know about this before they start dropping major coin on an instant headache. Just lookin out.
