ELECTRONIC BALLASTS
Next generation electronic ballasts are more efficient compared to traditional magnetic ballasts. The internal electronic microprocessor allows the ballast to run at a higher working frequency resulting in a higher lumen output. The higher output means you can run fewer fixtures and save on energy and equipment costs when compared to traditional magnetic ballasts. Fully equipped with a patented BAREF connector and a universal reflector adapter, all protected with our unsurpassed two year warranty. Powers both metal halide and high pressure sodium lamps. Ask PARsource representative for proper bulb pairings.

Accessories
Cordsets
for remote systems Our remote systems start with a 5,000v pulse-rated, position-oriented, mogul socket—highest rating of any socket on the market. Socket is mounted on our patented All System™ cylinder and mounting disc which adjusts each bulb for maximum reflectivity. Then, we add our new, molded right-angle, strain relief and 15 feet of heavy duty, 600v-rated, cable standard to our patented, waterproof Lock & Seal™ plug system. Patented in the U.S., foreign patents pending. Please special order for long-range igniter, longer length and HPS systems.
