What Customers Are Saying

This electronic fluorescent light ballast is generally effective and easy to install as a replacement for older magnetic ballasts. Many users found it straightforward to wire up and get their fixtures working again, with the new ballast providing instant-on and flicker-free operation. The smaller size and lighter weight were also noted as advantages. However, some experienced issues like slow start times, flickering, or premature failure. Overall, the majority of reviewers were satisfied with the product's performance and value, especially considering the cost savings compared to replacing the entire fixture.

Replace Ballast

Would Recommend

Works like a champ. So much less expensive and easier to change out a ballast than a complete light fixture. Of course, just make sure the power is disconnected.

To make our church shine

Would Recommend

The fluorescent light in our church basement had been very unreliable for the teacher who needed it. Sometimes it worked, but most of the time it remained dark. We realized that the balast needed to be replaced. We purchased one and fixed it, So that’s how our church basement became light again.

Reasonable replacement part but lights flickered

Would Recommend

I have replaced 2 old ballasts that stopped working with this one in my kitchen overhead lights. The installation was fairly simple, but I had issues with seeing shadows moving from one end of the light to the other in the fluorescent tubes when the lights were turned on. At first I thought the wrong voltage of tubes were being used, but even after replacing the tubes, I still saw this.
