Has anyone had any experience with these splitters ..they say a 1000 watt magnetic ballast will run two 600 watt lights ..I lov the theory jus haven't heard if this is the real deal or not any info would be appreciated.
i mean, that could have been a ballast specific issue, but you wont get 1200 watt, no matter what you do.
some ballasts may run closer to 500w each though.
Yep-- HATE THE DAMN THING!!!!
You can use ONLY their bulbs- which are single-spectrum bulbs-- it really F***d up our plants... they became weaker, lower yields, etc... You take 2 600w bulbs run em on a 1000w ballast and have 2- 500w output lights.. again- their bulbs are single spectrum, so IMO- pretty worthless...
IMO- you are better off spending some $$ on a bigger hood (King Cobra/Raptor etc..) and get a wider footprint with your 1000watter and use a good wide spectrum bulb!
JMO!
