Default Digital Ballasts??

So I'm thinking about switching over the old ballasts on my MH lights to digital ballasts. I was wondering if anybody had a suggestion for brand or where the best deals are to get them? I have 3x150W and 2x70W. Thanks in advance.

Ya know...I think the best option is to dump the halides and stick with compact fluorescents. They are so good at making corals "pop" that everyone will envy the tank. Yes, that is my humble suggestion.

I ran Lumetek digitals with my last halides. I did like them and would use them again......if I ran halides of course.
