The LUMii DIGITA ECO Ballast is fully electronic. This technology is micro-processor controlled and works at a higher frequency (hertz) than the standard magnetic ballast meaning more light gets to your plants. It is also more efficient, meaning more output per watt of energy consumed.

The LUMii DIGITA ECO Ballast is dimmable and has a boost setting for each lamp size, meaning you can control the light output. With the new LUMii, DIGITA ECO Ballast, less wattage is lost in transmitting power from the wall socket to the lamp. Better power management means more light to the plant and less energy consumed.

The quality of the light produced is also a lot more stable thanks to the LUMii power management software built into the unit that monitors lamp degradation and power fluctuation from the grid. This produces a higher hertz rate and optimum light levels. The lamp is rapid to ignite and uses less power at the ignition stage, and gives your plants a full spectrum light source within 5 minutes (magnetic ballast technology takes up to 20 minutes for the lamp to come up to full brightness).

The LUMii DIGITA ECO Ballast is one of the quietest ballasts on the market with no hum or vibration (this is common with magnetic or fan-cooled electronic technology) and is very lightweight.

The LUMii DIGITA ECO Ballast has safety features built-in that protects the unit's circuitry if a short is detected. When the ballast detects an abnormal input or output voltage due to an old or damaged lamp, it will not ignite the lamp. This ballast is resin covered on the inside, which helps to protect against dust ingress to the components and creating even heat distribution, meaning that there is no need for a fan.
