I have never tried them! You should ask him for samples and hook them up and test them for yourself! Like you said all salesman tell you what they have is the greatest, if they didn't they wouldn't be a salesman! My research has showed me that most of these cheaper LED are the ones that...

you need to read this and check with your state on requirements! In PA if you cross state lines and truck and trailer is more than 10,001lbs you need DOT numbers and other things required by CDL required trucks.

The down side to the Q series is it is a rebranded Graphtec and support is only from the rebrander, Not Graphtec!

When replacing a ballast not of the same manufacturer and same model number, never assume the wiring is the same! The internal circuits may be different and if not wired correctly can not only shorten lamp life but also shorten ballast life from not having them loaded correctly! SO ALWAYS CHECK...

An Allanson 396 and 496 3 lamp wiring is the same, except the 496 does not use the brown wires which need to be capped (Wire nutted separately). What I think the op is saying is that not all ballasts from different manufactures are wired utilizing the same colors for the same number of lamps!

What make you say wrong stuff? Could it be paint issue/ or maybe installed to soon after being repainted?
