Dam.
My ballast from Riant has died a 3rd time in 9-10 mo.
This time they refuse to respond to my email attempts to get it warrentied a 3rd time.
So i have a 450$ piece Of garbage.

Loved their specta when it worked.
But I cannot tolerate the failure rate an refusals to warrenty there product.

I need to go and revise evey good post I made about them.

Don't ever buy Riant lights folks.

That blows man!!
Can't you replace it with another induction ballast from another company?
I will look for the details about mine, i think i have the details in an e mail somewhere.
My ballast is over 2 years old and still just keeps going!
 
No you cant swap ballast from another company, no standardization yet.
ballasts must me matched to the bulb in frequency an impedance or they fail.

Guess they kept my warrenty going tell i did a grow or 2 for em.
Once they got what they wanted they quit.

Its 2 bad there spectra rocked...
 
That is sad...
Got the info they needed and blew out of town!

Pity because those lights rocked when you used them!
 
That's BS man,you did a lot of good stuff with that light and its a shame they've not responded to your mails.thanks for keeping us informed :smokebuds:
