Grim,
Do you have the ability to calculate PAR / Watts vs. Amps consumed. The IceCap VHO ballast has a low power factor, and the true amount of energy used will show up in the wattage comparison.

Our low capacitive power factor is off-set by the less than perfect inductive power factor produced by all pumps on the same service.
