Harold B Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I'm wondering if an Icecap 660 is capable of running 4 80w t-5's at 60" each? apparently they put out 340w and what i'm talking about is 320w. Or would it be better to run to seperate advance/workhorse ballasts. Please let me know what you all think would be the BEST way to run these 4 bulbs. Thank you in advance.

CuttleFishandCoral Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 A icecap 660 will run 16 ft of lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold B Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 OK so then a 660 will only run 3 5ft T-5's. Any ideas? Or will i have to use multiple ballasts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbird Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 it would be a good idea to have two ballasts. You can have your actinic on a little before and after your other lights for a sun up/down effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
