PLS help! JBJ PL lights where to repair?

[john8tan]

Any bro know where to repair JBJ PL lights? Mine is a 4 ft and I think 1 side of the E-ballast is gone. I tried to open the case and found the e-ballast inside JBJ is different from normal ones. Please help! [:]

Most electrical shops can repair the lights for you. If it's convenient, you can bring down to NA Nature. Chan may be able to help you.

Are you sure it's a eballast? Does your system come with a starter? Anyway, you can swop the tubes to confirm if it's the tube problem. If there is a starter, try changing first. Ballast are usually the last in the list of faulty parts.

u shd normally hear some humming sound before ur ballast break down

[tawauboy]

if you know how to change the ballast you need not find an identical replacement. as long as the new ballaset can fit in and matches the power rating, you shouldn't have any problem.

if you worry, bring it down to the distributor or nature aquarium or any electrical shops which provide electrical service.
