    i am thinking of replacing a old 175 magnetic ballast with a electronic coralvue one. does any one have any opinions on it as far as noise and heat?

    I have one and when it was in my office I could hear a slight buzz. Also I have heard people having problems with them, but I havn't has any in 2 years. Hope this helps and maybe someone else might have more information on any problems.
