I have strip lights just in case, would keep my plants going for a couple of days until I could find a replacement.

I used to grow with 1000W magnetic ballasts as well as with 8 bulb 4' t5s AND even further back in the day CFLs. Still got all of it and all of it still works.

I use digital ballasts and in my location now 1000 watters are just too much heat so I use 600s now instead but if anything ever goes dead I've got stuff that can replace it for as long as needed be as long as I'm willing to adjust some things.

I also keep no less than 2 extra air pumps, 2 extra swivel fans, 2 extra bulbs of each type and wattage I'm using, 1 extra digital ballast, and 1 extra inline fan on hand just in case something goes tits up. I could have my entire operation wiped out overnight by lightning and be up and running immediately.

If I ever scaled up I'd scale up my reserves as well. The way I see it that stuff won't go bad sitting in storage and you'll need it all eventually anyway. To me it's my insurance policy for something like a lightning strike or blown transformer and it only costs investing in your future grow. Win win.
