Improved version of my Ultimate Ballast Box! 
[url=http://www.galleryoflights.org/mb/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-401] Before Picture is here [/url]

The picture above is an improved version of this ballast box....

-Ballast box is painted into more "Home environment" color
-Less wiring needed
-Easier access to all ballasts
-More compact fan design and mount
-Replaced a few screws with brass screws on top for better "look"

What do you think? 

I may eventually add a terminal connector....

mice Job Jace!..in your Next Project Consider a Centrifugal Blower Type fan rather than an Axial Fan.

Wow Jace. Quite an improvement. Smile This looks fantastic!

I have since taken it apart...it's just too heavy and too big...separate boxes are better LOL!

Shocked Those F Can ballasts are quite heavy alone.
