  1. Hello Blades was looking for some help please? I ahave a brand new phantom 400 watts digital ballast, Hydro farm radiant 6 refractor witha 400 watt MH bulb , problem is when i plug it in it comes on for 1 second then nothing , any help would be great thank you .
     
  2. 20 views and nobody has a thought?
     
  3. Did you buy the ballast and bulb online or at a local grow shop?
    Most places(even online) have a warranty on the products they sell. I would find the number and talk to them, no one will know better how to fix the problem than the company you bought it from.

    Sorry I can't be of more help.
     
  4. I bought it at a local shop, called today and he said he thinks the bulb is bad so i have to take it back. Thanks for your thoughts.
     
  5. I took it up to shop ballast was fine he checked it out the bulb was bad got me another 1 and it was bad, got a bad batch from factory. Hooked me up with a awesome upgrade for 20 bucks ! Real happy !
     
  6. Glad things worked out for you man! Always take advantage of warranties or any available customer service.
