Remote Ballast
Hydrofarm is proud to present the completely redesigned premium multi-volt capable Powerhouse Remote Ballast. After more than a year of extremely intensive design, engineering and Underwriters Laboratories testing, the Powerhouse is packed with features that make it the most advanced HID remote ballast on the market!
HydroFarm Powerhouse Remote Ballast Enclosure
With its durable all-aluminum exterior construction and its offset high/low component orientation, it runs quieter and cooler than any other ballast Hydrofarm has ever made. Cool components equal higher performance and longer life, which Hydrofarm guarantees with an unprecedented 8-year warranty -- the longest in the industry!

An inside look at Hydrofarm Powerhouse Remote Ballast quality!

By placing the heat-producing transformer above critical operational components such as the capacitor and ignitor, the life of these parts are greatly extended, providing you with years of trouble-free operation. ISO-mount with silencer technology assures noise and vibration free performance while the new dual voltage feature allows you to operate this unit on either 110V or 220V circuits for maximum flexibility (220/240 power cord available separately). Patented Lock and Seal 15 foot in-line detachable lamp plug system for easy mobility, heavy duty 3-prong grounded power cord, sturdy rubber feet and a convenient carrying handle with keyhole cutouts for easy ceiling or wall mounting.

Hydrofarm All System Cord Set
Hydrofarm All System Socket Cylinder & Mounting Disc
Powerhouse Radiant Grow Lights work with the patented All System Cord Set (NOT INCLUDED, purchase separately below), which includes a fully adjustable socket cylinder and mounting disc, providing the ultimate connectivity from the remote ballast to the reflector and bulb.
Each All System Cord Set features a 6KV pulse rated, position-oriented mogul socket, the highest rating of any socket on the market. The socket is mounted to the All System Cylinder & Mounting Disc which is easily adjustable to position the bulb correctly in the reflector depending on the bulbs size for perfectly symmetrical lamp positioning and optimum output.

A custom molded right angle strain relief is connnected to 15 feet of heavy duty 600 volt rated cable and Hydrofarm's patented Lock & Seal plug system which safely connects the bulb to the remote ballast and allows for maximum flexibility in ballast placement.

Lumatek
Electronic
Remote Ballasts
The Lumatek electronic ballast produces up to 30% more lumens than a standard core and coil (magnetic) ballast while drawing less electricity.
Lumatek Electronic Remote Ballast Enclosure
The Lumatek ballast is completely silent (no more buzzing) and produces less heat than a standard ballast. Because of Lumatek's soft start technology the lamps last up to three times as long. Test data has shown that a Lumatek 600 watt ballast produces within 5% of the usable light of a 1000 watt core and coil ballast! Digital ballasts also do not degrade like standard ballasts do. Over time magnetic ballasts become louder, produce less light, emit more heat and use more electricity. Electronic ballasts maintain their efficiency throughout their life span.

Lumatek Electronic Remote Ballasts enable HID bulbs to produce 20 to 30% more lumens and can power either metal halide or high pressure sodium bulbs of the rated wattage.

Lumatek Electronic Remote Ballasts offer extremely fast start-up times, reaching full brightness in under one minute; magnetic ballasts typically take about twenty minutes.

Lumatek Electronic Remote Ballasts are completely silent. You literally have to put your ear up to the ballast before you can detect the slightest sound.

Lumatek Electronic Remote Ballasts feature a small, compact design and are extremely lightweight. The 600 watt version weighs less than 10 pounds, while magnetic 600 ballasts can weigh over 40 pounds.

Lumatek Electronic Remote Ballasts produce less heat and have built-in circuitry that automatically disables the system if a short circuit is detected. Electronic ballasts also provide a longer bulb life with dramatically less lumen output loss over time than with standard magnetic ballasts.

Lumatek Electronic Remote Ballasts offer the best warranty in the industry, a full 3 years with 2 additional years prorated. All Lumatek Electronic Remote Ballasts are fully compatible with the Hydrofarm All-System Cord Set, sold separately below. For 110/120V applications.
Hydrofarm All System Cord Set
Hydrofarm All System Socket Cylinder & Mounting Disc

The socket is mounted to the All System Cylinder & Mounting Disc which is easily adjustable to position the bulb correctly in the reflector depending on the bulbs size for perfectly symmetrical lamp positioning and optimum output.

A custom molded right angle strain relief is connnected to 15 feet of heavy duty 600 volt rated cable and Hydrofarm's patented Lock & Seal plug system which safely connects the bulb to the remote ballast and allows for maximum flexibility in ballast placement.
