hi all, ive been thinking about buying a 1000w lumatek dimmable ballast but there not cheap so i had a look on ebay and theres a guy selling them for £225 but on the picture it has a cooling fan,i asked him about the fan and he says that they are the european model.
so is he chatting shite or has any one else heard of them before?

Did you buy the 1000w lumatek in the end? It would be nice to see some pictures of they compare to the Uk version, I believe the dim options on the European and Us models are in % rather than the Uk which are 600-750-1000-Superlumen.

Just to add did you find the chap had cut the European plug and replaced in with a white after market Uk plug or wasit all original?

i dont have a picture but it has settings of 600w 750w 1000w and super lumens, it has a black plug that looks like its moulded so not been tampered with.
and now im a little gutted after finding uk lumatek lamps but they dont stock the 1000w version

Just a question really. But does it not seem a little odd with the 750w setting? Seeing as you could only use a 1000w bulb for that setting.

My adjusta-watt 1000w digi does 400 600 and 1000 watt. And super lumens naturally. So i could use any of those lamps if I so wish. Seems a little more logical to me

No reason really why a 600w bulb couldn't be run at 750w far as I can see. They are designed to withstand massive intolerances of mains current so...
