Review on Digital Ballast Dimmable Quantum 1000W by Tim Burns

Terrible. two new 1000 watt bulbs and none light up. Do I need to buy a special HPS lamp? If so, then there was no indication either from the manufacturer, on the packaging or in the instructions. I've waited at least 20 minutes for each bulb to light up to no avail. Only the MH works and I assume it lit the MH because each MH has its own built in igniter in the bulb. Two is even worse, I bought two of them. Heat, drought, and worrying about the house ballast burning out, I've done away with HID by buying LEDs.
