I found this old ballast in my closet and was wondering if anyone could tell me if it will run 2 T5's?
Or maybe to a web site with some info. Tried Google but not to much. If i remember correctly I was running 2 22", 55 watt PC's.
Model # E232PS120AD01
Thanks

Either a 440 or a 660 should run 2 T5s.

Thanks again.

If it runs two 55W PC, it will work with two T5 lamps; I did a mod on a Coralife and is just a sweet cheap
upgrade.

If it's either a 440 or 660 it will still be easily read 5 years later. I have 10 year old ones that are beat up beyond belief and you can read them.

What color is the body of the ballast? General size (in inches)?
