 It has to do with the Icecap circuitry. I believe it runs them at lower wattage but slightly higher frequency.

				How about a Fulham WorkHorse 7 ballast?  
Is it consider a HO or VHO ballast for 2X48 inch bulbs

 If you wire them in parallel (as in the manual), a WH7 will power 2-48" tubes to HO level. Wiring them in series (like one 8' tube) might run at close to full VHO level as a WH7 can run 2-96W PCs, though I have never done this.
