Review on Fulham Lighting SC120-113 Energy-Saving CFL Ballast by Radney Taala

Revainrating 4 out of 5

New technologies are the way!

In a fairly old aquarium, the hood light began to flicker. Swapped the hose and starter - to no avail. Those old magnetic ballasts that required a starter were now obsolete and one of these was no longer available for my particular lamp. It is best to use these new electronic ballasts with built-in starters. The wiring is slightly different but two blue on one end and two red on the other end and the power wires to the wire and switch and I'm back in business for half the cost of a new light.

Pros
  • Meets Energy Star 4.0 criteria for listed applications.
Cons
  • It was possible to choose a newer model
