Came back from a week away to find my 250W DE light stopped lighting up in my absence. My tank is esconsed in darkness. :sad: Apparently it worked fine on Saturday, but on Sunday wouldn't light up. I played around with it a little today and indeed, can't get it to light.
Can someone lend me a 250W light to help me diagnose the problem? I suspect it is the bulb but before I order a replacement, I should confirm that the ballast is working OK.
Ideally, someone could lend me a spare bulb for a couple of days, but failing that, if someone had a bulb that I could just use to test fire the ballast for a few minutes, that would work too. Please let me know ASAP if you can help out, I'm desperate!
Thanks!
