Why is everyone running the attached fixtures? When they can run remotes?

I think the epaps use the standard Phillips green power and the gavitas use the green power plus.

Why would Philips (who makes the bulb) put in a shittier bulb if they are going to enter the market..?

Efficiency for certain and spectrum possibly. The voltage from ballast to bulb on the attached fixture is 400v vs the standard 250v on the remote ballasts. Perhaps somebody who understands this better can explain it?

With the proper ballast you will still achieve the 400v. Specifically the Digistar E series.

I have these ballasts and potentially a couple fixtures left, please PM with the specifics.

RFI is the a thing of the past... In almost all new ballasts the internal components are coated with a resin. The length of the lamp cord would obviously still be a factor but anyone who knows anything, knows to keep that cord short regardless.

Well then Bull Trout was right... Lol... Why on earth are we running them non remote. Haha. Lamp cord is shielded for 600v and I've found some nice 14awg ones too. But the ballasts put out virtually no heat and it's nice to have it all clean without cables all over the place. Add to that no heat added outside the grow room.

For sure - There are several manufactures working on anti-RF lamp cords;)
