Does a Metal Halide ballast (Advanced core and coil) still hold charge after it is turned off? I bought an electrical box that I want to put two Metal Halide ballasts in it. One ballast was actively used. Am I in any danger of getting a shock?
Also, is there anything diffrent I need to do when wiring two ballasts that will share the same power line. Any plans?

the capacitors that come with advance ballasts have an internal discharge resistor, so they do not store current, if your unsure about how to wire the ballasts, your probably better off getting a local electrician to wire it up for you.
