So the other day I unplugged my light by accident and then plugged it right back in but the light never came back on. ive done this before with out issue not saying u should. this bulb was a year old but I can sure see damage inside it and I'm sure I did it. So I'm wondering shouldn't my ballast have stoped tht from happening? Or did it do exactly what it was spost to and keep it from blowing the bulb And damaging my hood?

Oh I guess I should add tht i put a new bulb in the hood and it's been working fine -
You checked the breaker i assume?
it could have been a surge or an arch that caused it too

If your ballast has a warm up before lights kick on them it wasn't ballast but if you don't let it cool down before you plug it back in it's very possible you fd up. Next time let it cool down for 10-15 minutes before you plug it back in.https://forum.growweedeasy.com/forum...-she-s-a-beast
