Our Recommendations for Ballasts

Hydroponics offers us the amazing opportunity to grow plants and produce amazing yields indoors. However, to simulate plant growth conditions in doors lighting fixtures are a must. Ballasts are important pieces of equipment for getting the best out of your grow room lighting. These devices are able to regulate and limit the electrical current passing through an electrical load. The majority of fluorescent and HID lights require a ballast for use, as they run the risk of either not running or exploding without one. There are LED’s designed with ballasts for this very reason. Several ballast designs, be they digital or magnetic, come with a dimmable function to regulate different lighting intensities to accommodate grow room needs.

Here at Hyjo, we understand that hydroponics is not as simple as picking up any old tools. Ballasts are a safe and worthwhile investment for your grow room lighting, typically offering different wattage settings and robust, heat reducing housing. We have an extensive range of ballasts available for you online and in our store.
