Experience with Sunleaves ballasts

[bigAl25]

Has anyone had experience with magnetic Sunleaves ballasts? My far away, 100 miles, grow shop has a combo for $175 for a complete magnetic ballast, 1000 watt lamp and hood. It also ships for free. I now use two 400 watt lamps, one MH, one HPS. I have a 3 foot by 5 foot, by 7 foot high space. Sounds like a great deal to go up to a 1000 watt setup. Ballast can handle MH and HPS both. Any experience pointers with sunleaves would be appreciated.

The Sunleaves 600 watt ballasts have worked well for me. All the 600 watt ballasts plug in the killa watt meter have an output between 640 to 660 watts.

The one Hydrofarm 600 watt ballast had an output of 615 watts.
