    I’ve got a Powerplant ballast. It’s 12 years old and has been running pretty much constantly for all that time. It has a separate contactor which you plug the timer into so the timer doesn’t fry.

    That’s reliability!

    I wouldn’t recommend it tho unless you’re setting up a grow museum, it gets hot as fook!

    (Must buy a new one)

    I edited and removed the external link from your post as they are against forum rules jmglo007 (check them over here - Rules - Linky) , it's absolutely fine though to give us a name/model of the product or even an ebay item number is applicable


    In regards to your question, I can highly recommend Green-Qube tents..and for more opinions check a thread I created a while back - Which tent is the considered the best these days? - Linky
