ballast question

[fatboyjoe]

I have an orbit extreme 4 x 130 watt 4 pin flouresent light fixture. It has 2 switches and 2 cooling fans. each bulb has a 120 volt 60hz ballast. recently one of my ballast went bad(less than one year). to replace the ballast with the exact same ballast costs about $80.00. my question is should I replace the ballast (current usa brand) one by one as they go bad. or can I upgrade the ballasts with quality ballasts like ice cap. anyone done this before? any tips?

i have not done this so i cant say for sure.. but i would assume that if you get a IceCap ballast with the same specs it would work


but i will let others respond..
