How To Use The Eye Hortilux 1000w HPS DE Bulb, 1900K

Never handle this bulb with your bare hands, as your fingers contain oils that can decrease the bulb's performance. Make sure you always wear gloves. Be sure to closely follow the included installation instructions when putting this lamp in your fixture to prevent damaging the coils.

We recommend only using the Eye Hortilux 1000w HPS DE Bulb, 1900K with Eye Horitlux Electronic ballasts. If you don't do this, you may experience premature lamp failure, decreased performance, and lower efficiency. While you may dim or overdrive the bulb, you need to start by burning it in at 1000w.

Do not attempt to air-cool the lamp, as this will reduce the light output. Instead, increase HVAC or exhaust cycles. Be aware that constantly overdriving the lamp will result in a loss in intensity, and decrease the bulb life.
