Product Details

Add a ferrite filter to the digital ballast AC line input and ballast cord output and suppress ugly interference to surrounding electronic devices (yours and your neighbors)! Order 1 set for each ballast.

You get a ring filter (1.4" ID) for the AC power line and a snap on filter (3/4" ID) for the lamp cord. Wrap as many turns as possible on both cables as close as possible to the ballast.

Ballast shown is a Lumatek LK400.

All ballasts in a particular location must have a filter otherwise RFI may not be suppressed to a measurable value. Suppresses RFI in range of .15-10 MHz.

16:1 Baluns are useful between 750-850 ohm balanced loads where the impedance at the  end of the feed line is 800 ohms (1/2 wavelength feed line), or high impedance feeds for rhombic,  T2FD and traveling wave antennas.

16:1 Ununs are useful between coax and long wires with a load impedance near 800 ohms like a beverage antenna.  Shortwave listener antennas also can benefit with the 16:1 unun and it may provide a better match than 9:1 ununs – this means quieter noise levels and stronger signals so you can hear distance stations easier.
