Now you have found another 39W or 55W E-ballast with shield that can fit externally or slim enough to fit behind the reflector??

I have one spare Dymax T5 light set now that can do some modification work immediately....

As far as i know.. this 'cheapo' ballast will shorten the lifespan of the T5s

Sorry to problem you Monsterz1975 again.

Got picture of your completed Dymax T5 with new Ballast?

Now, I have one tank set running with 2 x 30W Dymax T5 and 2 x 30W Coralife T8.

I am think of decommission my T8 so I can have one 2 x 30W Dymax NO-T5 and one 2 x 39W Dymax/Aquaz HO-T5.

Thanks.
