bulb not burning correctly

[patedship]

So I just got a new lighting set up and I have noticed that one of my halides doesnt burn NEARLY as nicely as the other.

I have a PFO 175w dual ballast with 2 XM 175w 15K MH.

It seems as if the ballast isnt trying as hard to burn the second light at the proper temp. IS there anything I can do? Open up the ballast and tinker? haha

If you have just gotten it give it a few days. MH bulbs can take a total of 40 hours of run time before they burn in. Before that each bulb has its' own characteristics. If after that time they are still different I'd contact PFO about getting a replacement ballast.

It doesnt have to do with the bulb, because I have tried both bulbs in the mogul and it is the power that is coming from the ballast is what the problem is. Is there anyone who can help me trouble shot this problem?
