Looking to borrow or loan a 250w MH electronic ballast that plugs into iec connectors. Lmk

Actually, I have an extra power bar for the profilux as you can see in the bin. Do you want to try the older version? It might be more current handling than the new one.
 
Update on the situation
The coralvue ballast worked fine no problem.
The reefbrite ballast is the problem. It uses a microprocessor that tries to adjust the current all the time and I believe the power bar is reading it as a bad thing. The light flickers when it’s on the ghl power bar until the power bar shuts down.
 
I actually prefer the bluer spectrum for Radium on E- ballast.
Give it a try and you may like it.
The “full potential” people talking about online is just over drive the bulb. It will run hotter, and whiter.

2.1 A on an electronic ballast?

On a M80, it will draw 3A.
