Just wondering if anyone out here has used the Phantom ll and if so how long have you? and what is your impression?
I am thinking of using the Phantom ll to try a new ballast name, 600 watt.
I have been using Galaxy with Super Lumen option. and I see the Phantom ll has that feature also.
Just hoping someone here can give me a heads up !!
Been Using the Galaxy's for a while they seem to last a bit longer then the comp. but i only been getting 2 to 3 years out of them, luckily I have my old magnetic backup to use while my electronic one is down, which I really don't like to but they need light.

Well I may have had the my last galaxy for a bit over 3 years, and it just went down, I really don't consider that to bad running for 12 hours a day for 3 years in my opinion. But did the old Phantom out last 3 years, I know the new one hasn't been around long but someone might have bought one right away.

Thanks
Bear

Well seems no one knows anything about those ballasts, I bought 2 of them and have them running now, anyone want to know I may have some info in a few months or Years lol hopefully, So far they have some really cool features I like now, they have a 32mhz processor It is dimmable to 50% 75% 100% and 110% with a feature I've never seen it will let you know when your light bulbs are or need to be changed. they are totally silent not even a buzz like the others do. some really cool stuff on these ballasts. also they run very cool

I know a guy who swears by them, used to run them in a big op in CA. I think you made a good purchase, though I haven't run one myself. Thanks for the initial impressions!

Thanks for checking out my post, I'll keep you posted they seem nice so far and I really like the silence of the unit and they run cool to. Thanks again Michael.
