945 Watt CMH SE DigiLamp and EnergyStation Ballast Kit | 3200K, 240V

945 Watt CMH SE DigiLamp and EnergyStation ballast, matched in one kit This kit puts two parts from Allstate Garden Supply in one box: the DigiLamp mogul-base lamp and the EnergyStation ballast built to drive it. The lamp is part DP-CMH945/E39, a 945W single-ended ceramic metal halide bulb on an E39 mogul base. It runs at 3200K and is rated for 125,000 initial lumens, with an average life of 10,000 hours. The glass is an ET25 shape under ANSI code S52/E, and the design is covered by US Patent 9,824,878. DigiLamp developed it in California around a full-colour spectrum rather than the narrow orange band of a sodium lamp. The ballast is part ES-EB945/240, a 240V electronic unit that ships with its own 240V cord. It dims in four steps: Super Lumens, 100%, 75% and 50%. The case measures 10.75 x 7 x 4.5 in and weighs 11.5 lbs. It carries a UL listing. Allstate backs the ballast with a 3-year limited warranty. Running a 945W CMH ballast and mogul lamp in a flower room At that colour temperature the lamp sits in the bloom and transitional range, warm enough to carry a crop through flower. Most growers use it to replace a sodium lamp in a mogul reflector they already own, since the socket format is the same. Check that the socket and hood are rated for a lamp of this wattage before you swap anything. A reflector is not part of the kit. A lamp this strong wants real mounting distance, so start high and come down slowly while watching leaf temperature. The lower dimming steps help during the first week of flip, or when a new batch of clones goes under it. Allstate also describes the same ballast for HPS and MH use, which leaves room for a sodium lamp late in flower. Mount the ballast off the floor and away from the canopy so its heat stays out of the room air. One wiring requirement decides whether this kit fits a room. It runs on a 240 volt circuit, so a standard 120 volt wall outlet cannot power it. Plan the circuit before the lamp arrives and the installation is a ten minute job. Key Features 945W Mogul-Base CMH Lamp: The E39 base fits single-ended reflectors, so an existing hood can take a ceramic lamp. 3200K Full-Colour Spectrum: A warm, broad spectrum suits flowering rooms and makes plants easier to read under the lamp. 125,000 Initial Lumens: Output in the range of a large sodium lamp comes from a ceramic arc tube. Four-Step Dimming: Super Lumens, 100%, 75% and 50% settings let you ease plants in after flip. UL-Listed 240V Ballast: The EnergyStation ballast ships with a 240V cord and a 3-year limited warranty. 10,000-Hour Average Life: Rated life gives a long run before the lamp needs replacing. 240 Volt Circuit Required: A standard 120 volt wall outlet cannot power this ballast.
