Will one icecap 660 ballast run 8 T5 36 inch bulbs so long as it is not over 440 watts?
 
It's been a while, but I'm rather confident that the 660 maxi's out at four bulbs, regardless of length. The 430 will run 2 bulbs, regardless of length.

My setup was four 48 inch T5's on a 660 and two 48 inch on a 430.


Coralvue still sells IceCap HERE....Chris is the expert on IceCap at Coralvue.
 
Just talked to Chris at coralvue and 4 bulbs Is max no matter what size they are. thanks for the reply's
