Hi Daniel,

Looks to me like it's a complete set-up with ballast n ignitor. U need to open the box to see the ballast. U can actually tell if

it's eballast or magnetic by its weight. Regular ballast is darn heavy.

Good day,

Finbir.

Hi Daniel,

If the 3 pcs inside totalled 2.7kg then it's dammed heavy! Bet it's magnetic. Eballasts of wattage 150 can be bought at Sim

Lim Tower, jus' to name one. N they r very much lighter, more energy efficient besides generating less heat. Most get put

off by the cost until they weigh the advantages of using one.

Happy reefing,

Finbir.

the 3 pcs should consist of a ballast, ignitor and capacitor. Yours confirm a magnetic ballast
