I have a 24" Spectra and am having trouble getting the metal halide to fire. I have the Luxcore 250 W- 400 W ballast. I wired the ballast to the Spectra attachment as follows:
white to brown
black to blue
green to green
I first tried plugging it into my DJ strip. Turning on the power does not light the bulb. I can hear only the faintest hum in the ballast (so silent I am almost not 100% sure its there). I then tried to plug the ballast directly into a GFI outlet and it trips the GFI instantly.
Any suggestions on what is going on here?
