Hi everyone !

I have a IPower 600 Watts dimmable electronic ballast . It's in its second batch only and sometimes the light will flicker . Like if I would play with the dimmer switch from 600 to 450 ... Sometimes it's OK .
I tryied to dimm it and bring it back ,but now it won't even dim anymore .
Anyone ran into that kind of problem ? It's not on the garanty anymore ....
I don't even know if it's stuck to 450 or 600 watts .
Any ideas ?
Thanks !

Boris

"Dimmable" works best with the appropriate bulb. "1000" setting is best suited for a 1k bulb, 600 is best suited by a 600w. Some bulbs do not like being dimmed, whether or not they "work", using the appropriate bulb fascilitates proper spectrum.

Thanks Odin for the answer . I wish you are right dude . It did work before , I mean the dimmer , but not anymore .
I 'm changing the bulb in two weeks for the HPS , I will test it if it dims ...
