Review on Enhanced SEO: SolisTek Double Ended Dimmable Digital Ballast by Richard Lamptey

For some reason they come with a timer. I've read that you need a remote to turn it off, but I found out that you can hold down the power button when the device is off and that will disable the timer. This is a self-test and does not heat up. I have a very small fan that blows directly on two of them on the lowest setting and they barely reach 40 degrees Celsius. If I don't use a fan, the temperature approaches 60°C, but no more. Generally they are quite noisy (electrical noise) and mess up a lot of my microcontroller projects, but having all the wires shielded alleviates the problem. and affect only the most sensitive sensors. I don't think it will affect consumer products that way because they are more reliable. Many of my projects are in the prototype stage and don't have sufficient protection against such noise, so for 90% of buyers this will not be a problem.
