Call advance. They have a good tech support section.

When I go by the book the Ballast rel2s110-tp will fire a F96T12HO bulb. But down the page there is another ballast RS2S200-tp the will fire F96T12VHO bulb.The input watts and line amps are much higher on this ballast.I am curious to see what the right one is. Marc

I ditched the advanced ballasts. My 96 watt bulb would flicker and the ballast would get so hot you could not touch it. I went with the ice cap. It is much better, the lights are brighter and start up all the time and there is never a flicker. Lowes even took back my advance ballast. I must agree with advance that the ballast are not made for 96 watt PC. Spend the money for the ice caps...you won't be sorry.

<STRONG>Last question: How do you know what side of the power cord is the "hot" side vs. the neutral side? I always gets this mixed up.

If you have a polarized male plug, which side is the "hot" the wider flared side or the other side?</STRONG><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

hi, on a plug/ the brass screw/ or narrow side is the hot and the silver screw/ wide plug is the neutral.HTH
