If it is running fine then it probably will for awhile anyway. When you get to that point find out what went wrong and see if it is worth fixing at that point. Or move up to something better if it is too much.

My new light came with a 5 year warranty on the ballast and the hydro shop guy said it will last a long time so who knows.

I run 4 B.A.L euro model 600's and they are all digital making cost a bit more to repair but I didn't know they broke. I'm at 4 years now and no problems.

I ran Eurosystems ballasts for over 2 years, and while I did have some issues with the 1000w, the 600's are rock-solid and about as good as you can get.

They ran very quiet and cool, and I never had problem one.
