A ballast for fluorescent lights is the heart of a fluorescent and high powered light bulb lighting system circuit.
Ballast are the component that helps ignite the light bulb it is connected to.
The ballast also manages current flow to the bulb to maintain a constant light output for us to use.
This ballast for fluorescent lights has a 120 Volt Input Voltage.
Only use compatible type bulbs F8T5 or F13T5 Fluorescent Type Bulbs.
