I would put the chiller on its own circuit and not run it on the apex. They can draw a fair bit of current when they startup.

Definitely recalibrate the eb8.
There is no "sticker" telling me what type of ballast it is...any obvious ways to tell if it is a magnetic...Even the galaxy site does not say..
