The PowerPlant range is full of outstanding quality lighting equipment to help achieve your plants optimum growth. The innovative range includes a unique reflector, metal halide and HPS lamps, a controllable ballast and controller.

A ballast is an essential component to a grow room environment. With the PowerPlant Controllable Ballast is controllable via a controller, meaning that growers are able to control multiple at the same time. This results in the ability to control large grow rooms with multiple ballasts and ability to have them in synergy on the same settings. Fully fitted with the extra Boost (115%) setting allowing growers to get 15% more out of the plants and supplying them without light.

This ballast should only be used with 600W HID Lamps.

Key USPs:
  • Controllable ballast via external controller connected by a lead
  • Supplied as a stand-alone ballast with a flying IEC lead, enabling you to add any reflector fitted with a universal IEC socket
  • 1-year warranty

Feature and Benefit
Controllable ballast via controller with lead, growers control your ballasts via the controller, meaning you can potentially control multiple ballasts with just one controller.

Controllable ballast via controller with lead

Boost (115%) Setting allows you to get 15% more out of your lamp and provide your plants with more light.

Dimming Settings (300W (50%) & 450W (75%)) allows growers to control temperature, as less heat will be produced at lower settings. This is also required to allow the Sunrise/Sunset features of controllers.

Supplied as a stand-alone ballast with a flying IEC lead, enabling you to add any reflector fitted with a universal IEC socket. Ability to choose the reflector that you want, no need for brand specific models.

Timed Ignition Circuit to help protect the unit from overload when lamps fail.

For use with 600W HID Lamps only.

Science Behind the Product
A ballast is the electrical device which is necessary to run and light a HID lamp safely. The ballast regulates the current to the lamps and provides sufficient voltage to start the lamps. Without a ballast to limit its current, a lamp connected directly to a high voltage power source would rapidly and uncontrollably increase its current draw - within moments the lamp would overheat and burn out. During lamp starting, the ballast must briefly supply high voltage to establish an arc between the two lamp electrodes. Once the arc is established, the ballast quickly reduces the voltage and regulates the electric current to produce a steady light output.

The LUMii BLACK Metal Magnetic Ballast is a 600w metal-cased magnetic ballast, supplied with a flying IEC lead, this ballast enables you to add any reflector fitted with a universal IEC socket. It’s simple to start growing, just add a reflector and a lamp with the same wattage as the ballast.The well vented metal-case ensures the ballast runs cool and quiet and features wall-hanging brackets making them fully wall-mountable, thus making more space in your grow room. It has an IP rating of 20 and runs at 2.9A. The LUMii BLACK Metal-Cased Magnetic ballast can be used with any 600w HID lamp – however we recommend using a LUMii SunBlaster 600w or LUMii BLACK 600w HPS lamp to get the best results.This ballast is guaranteed for 12 months from date of manufacture providing the unit is returned to the place of purchase and subject to the unit not being modified in any way.

This 600 W Electronic Ballast is supplied as a stand-alone ballast with a flying IEC lead so you can add any reflector fitted with an IEC socket to start growing. The ballast features both dim and boost functions, having the ability to control the light output from the lamp. There are two dimmable options (250w & 400w) and a ‘super-lumens’ boost option (600w+Boost) which is on average an extra 10% increase in output. For best results, always use the correct lamp per wattage setting. This ballast is guaranteed for 12 months from date of manufacture providing the unit is returned to the place of purchase and subject to the unit not being modified in any way.
