          Frequently Asked Questions:

          Q: How many plants can fit under a 4' x 4' (16 sq. ft.) area?

          A: The amount of plants that can fit in a 4' x 4' area is completely dependent on the size of the plants and the size of the pots used. A five gallon pot is about 12" in diameter on the bottom, which means you may have up to 16 pots in a 4' x 4' area.

          Q: Can a lower wattage lamp be used with a higher wattage iPower ballast, and vice-versa?

          A: Different mismatched wattage lamp and ballast per light fixture may cause premature ballast and/or lamp failure, and is not covered under warranty. Please use the same paired wattage lamp and ballast per light fixture; the dimming feature is designed for the purpose of a lowering lamp output when needed.

          I bought this in June, 2019 and by September it had failed. It's a piece of junk. Don't waste your time or money on this. It could kill your bulb too!! I'd rate it a 0 if I could. Shouldnt even be on the market it is so cheap. And the seller's return window is too small (1 month). I replaced it with a Phantom II PHB2010. More expensive up front but worth the money. Not a problem since the replacement.
