This ballast will power any metal halide 250-watt bulb. It does not over-drive the bulb, so output will be at the bulb manufacturer's specifications.
By using a constantly changing, very high frequency, the ballast will light any bulb without flicker. Longer bulb life and other features makes this the best ballast for all metal halide applications. Does not come with Molex connector.

IceCap uses its unique, patented operating system, which allows you to save energy without compromising light output. By applying lower voltage across the lamp, energy consumption is reduced and lamp life is expected to be increased.

Advantages:
- Energy Savings of over 10% from High Efficiency
- Longer Lamp Life due to constant output
- Longer Ballast life due to low heat
- Compact Size to fit most fixtures
- High Frequency Operation is flicker & noise free
- Savings on air conditioning costs

Quality:
- Built-in circuit protection
- High Voltage, High Current Protection
- High Temperature Shut-Down
- Improper Wiring Protection

5 out of 5 stars IceCap 250W Metal Halide
by reefer from wisconsin on 1/23/2010
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
the ballast stays cool to the touch even after running for 10+ hours. It also re-starts very quickly and drives my bulb perfectly. The beast ballast I have ever used and will never go with a different brand ballast again.

5 out of 5 stars Great Ballasts
by InfernoST from Brooklyn, NY on 12/6/2009
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
I had another manufacturers ballast literally blow up (Only 5 months old) which left me with 1 operating MH lamp, now that my confidence was 0 with my existing ballast I ordered 2 of the Icecap ballast to replace both. I must say that the ballast makes a huge difference, my lamps are now much brighter and penetrate much deeper than before, the ballasts run cool and are built to last. Don't make the same mistake I did, buy right the first time otherwise you pay twice.

5 out of 5 stars Worth Every Penny
by S.Porto from Pittsburgh, Pa on 7/8/2009
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
simple to install, make sure you purchase male connectors if you are hooking up to a non-IceCap fixture,I noticed more light intensity immediately, reduced heat & a much faster start up time. This item is a must for all Reef enthusiasts!
