As the title states, I am wondering if I can run just one 315w bulb in my Nanolux 630 cmh dual bulb hood. Reason I ask is I wanted to do a test run of 630 cmh vs 315 cmh + 400hps. Obviously I would be running the 400w hps in a separate hood and ballast. But just want to know if its going to cause issues running only one bulb in a hood designed for two. Tried contacting Nanolux but have yet to receive a response. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Also if anybody knows anything about the NCCS ( Nanolux Cloud Control System) or has any experience using it please chime in!

It depends on the ballast. The cmh ballast i have has multiple settings as well as 2 pig tails for the hoods. I ordered mine with 2 315 hoods instead of the duel. Does your ballast have selective wattage?

No it does not. All it has is the nanolux cloud control system but I still need to get all parts to use it.
