Don't recommend digital ballast for this lamp as it gets extremely hot that's my opinion good luck

Yes it will work but ballast won't last as long I lost a digital ballast never used them again

Nope. It's really just so simple :) Just a suggestion, tho: I'd really recommend that you use an LED bulb for this lamp since it doesn't heat up. Also, using a 40W equivalent LED Globe bulb worked best for me in terms of lighting (that is, if you want your light to be bright but also very relaxing for the eyes) and this bulb, specifically, is really durable and energy efficient. Hope it helps (Pack of 4) G25 LED Bulb 6W, Warm white, 3000K, 40W Globe Bulb Incandescent Replacement, clear Cover, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

Nope but I did notice however LED lights are more effective as additional lighting. Mixing HID lighting or flourscent with is the way to go in my opinion. I've noticed better results and more natural growth. Pretty light tho- it's pink. You can use them by themselves tho too. I would recommend one plant per 135 watt ufo. Once you have 3 or 4 going it can get a bit noisey tho. Low heat is nice

It depends on amount of light you can give it. The included LED light will not be enough light for growing plants.

No It's strictly for 1000 watt lights. the dimmable is to run the light at 75% and 50% of it's power. but it has to be 1000 watts.

Mixing bulbs and ballasts is ALWAYS a bad idea. It's a fire hazard, plus it messes with your spectrum even if you do get it to work. There is no benefit, and your plants will suffer tremendously, if you don't burn the house down first. Apollo makes a 1000 watt version for a few bucks more if that's what you need.

Hi Benjamin, I would say you would certainly need more watts for bigger and healthier plants.. It perfect for the seedling and helping them along once they sprout.. However, it's a bit narrow and not enough light for year round use.. You would probably need 4 of those little 54 watt bulbs to make it worthwhile..Good luck..

Yes , you can if it fits. The power (watts) that the bulbs draws is 60 watts, so it is well within the maximum rating for the lamp, as you said it is 150 watts.

This lamp may not meet your desires. I use only the bulb that came with the lamp. A larger bulb may not be safe. J

If your home theater is 1000W or less, yes you can use it. Otherwise, you don't want to risk burning the system.

Yes the ipower hps 600 watt is a great light for the price I use them myself plus i keep two on my self for spares. I use 2 ipower 600 watt cool tubes and they great for flowering

I haven't noticed a wattage rating on the fixtures. 1000w is the high estimate of the tungsten equivalent of those 5 CFL's. The dual diffusers do cut the light output somewhat, but four of these units have been working for me for a couple of years. I suppose if you're a good electrician, you could change the fixtures. Sometimes, if I have a high white ceiling, I leave the softbox off of one of them, and just put it up high, pointed at the ceiling. I then use the others normally.

Definitely. Using 3 60W equivalent LED bulbs is really bright. This lamp is really pretty, and I highly recommend that you use these bulbs, it worked best for me in terms of lighting and the product quality. It really lasts longer compared to the previous bulbs I've used. I hope it helps! Triangle Bulbs T95123-6 (6pack) - LED Dimmable 60 Watt Equivalent Daylight A19 Light Bulbs, 6 pack

We have both this light and a grow light and the plants in our tank are doing beautifully. Plus, we cut our electricity bill by more than 65%. We used to have two grow lights, but we are very happy with this set-up now. Hope this helps.

I think not. The lamp's shade is plastic and the heat from a 23W CFL might degrade it. At any rate, the manufacturer was quite specific in calling for the wattage they called for and no more.

I would use 100W light bulbs at the least if no other light source is available. Also, the light you use must NOT be of the flourescent type. You only really need the required light around the Chrony ;^)

Yes, assuming you use lamps which are dimmable. some LED's and CFL's are not dimmable. Check the package.
