Dimmable MH Ballast

I see Coralvue is making them in 400W now too

Albright can get them up to 1000W but they get very expensive and you have to order in bulk for them to be able to place the order.

Maybe consider saving some time researching..........maybe that is... I have had dimmable ballasts since 2003, have not dimmed them once. Chances are you will never dim them unless you have a unique application for them.

But how much DO they dim? I was thinking adding them to a full sunlight sunrise/sunset. You know, starting off with T5's that are dimmable, ramping them up, then ramping up MH to full brightness for a couple hrs, then ramping down. Could also make Spotted cloud patterns and such??
