    running an icecap 660, 4 bulb VHO setup... set up a couple days ago. all is wired right, and its been working fine. earlier today while reaching in the tank i gave one of the bulbs a bump and they all cut off. when flipping the switch two of the lights flash on for a second then cut out. i made sure all connections were snug, any ideas on why this might be happening?? i really need the light! any help/suggestions would be great, thanks.

    sounds like either an intermittant ground connection or one of the bulbs are not properly seated.
