Title: giesemann MegaChrome 250W single ended bulb
Post by: Gaspare on October 30, 2009, 10:08:10 AM
I have been trying to determine what is the correct ballest to run giesemann MegaChrome 250W single ended bulb.  ??? I have a standard 250W metal halide ballast (M58 I think).  Has anyone used this combination?  If so what has your experience been in terms of coral colour and bulb life?  Thank you.

Take a look at:
   http://www.manhattanreefs.com/lighting
and select either the tab "Lamp and Ballast" or the "one Lamp" tab. You will get a great deal of information about bulb / ballast combinations.
