    Ballast Technology
    The ballast is an essential component that limits the current flow once the arc is established and provides the necessary high voltage for ignition. Two primary types exist:
    Magnetic Ballasts: Employ an iron core and copper windings. They are robust but introduce significant audible hum and substantial harmonic distortion due to the fluctuating magnetic field. The inherent magnetic field fluctuation is sometimes blamed for minor, localized shifts in the [Proprioceptive Resonance Index](/ent…
