Ballast gone bad??

[bkoppes]

I replaced the bulb recently from ushio to radium.
My MH light keeps turning off and I can hear the Ballast clicking. Is my Ballast going bad on JBJ 28g Nano Cube HQI??????

I am trying to track down a ballast that will work. It has 5 wires, not 3 like most ballasts.

Where can I get a replacement?

Try putting ur Ushio back in . I can't remember for sure but I think that ballast will not fire a Radium correctly . If it does fire it will flicker and goes out .

You can upgrade your ballast to electronic if you want. Here is a site with the kit

It worked good for me, there is a good amount of diy.
