The Phantom II Digital Ballast takes the reliability and engineering superiority of the original Phantom ballast and adds industry leading Smart Alert
Technology—setting a new standard for excellence and functionality.
The Smart Alert Technology utilizes a 32 MHz fully integrated microprocessor to diagnose and keep your setup running smoothly. The Phantom II also features
built-in hot restrike programming to protect the lamp and ballast in the event of a power outage, meaning the ballast will not attempt to restart a hot lamp for at least 15 minutes. The Phantom II is totally silent, energy efficient, reliable, and lightweight.

Intelligent lamp ignition and power control
• Intelligent Lamp Ignition and
Power Control The Phantom II extends lamp life by utilizing a controlled ramp-up or ramp-down of power upon start, shut off, or dimming. Additionally, the Phantom
II will recognize that a warm lamp can be brought to full power more rapidly, and adjusts accordingly.
• High-Precision Microprocessor
Control The 32 bit processor is four times faster than the processing speed of a generic e-ballast.
• End of Life Lamp Protection and
Indication As the lamp approaches the end of its effective life, the ignition voltage goes up and light output becomes less efficient. The
Phantom II alerts the user via the
LED indicators that the lamp is ready to be replaced, so the system can maintain optimum efficiency.
• More Efficient Patented power control programming enables transmission of power with higher efficiency. The .96 true power factor of the Phantom II is higher than the first generation, leading to 10% less energy lost to heat. Less heat improves performance and lifetime.

Get more ballast for your buck with the SG Ballast
Series, which is light on price but heavy on features. Experience the power of a ballast straight out of Hydrofarm’s value line. These ballasts are built to last with a patented design that allows electrical contact to happen only when a seal is achieved. The SG ballasts offer a compact design, to save space in the grow room, and a waterresistant seal to protect against misting and sprays. All SG ballasts also feature the exclusive
Lock & Seal plug system with recessed contacts to ensure safety during plug-in; a unique, circular prong pattern for secure electrical contact; and a collar that protects against accidental electrical contact.
Choose an SG ballast for its flexible 120V/240V capability (power cord included) or for peace of mind—the SG Convertible and Standard ballasts have been CSA certified.
Select the right match for your growing needs and your budget from the convertible HPS/MH models or the Standard HPS model (available in a 600W
HPS-only, 120V/240V configuration – item code
SGO600S).
