Everyone says "spikes" blowing timers etc. I have been running HIDS for years and have the same timer.
I have placed a surge suppressor before the timer just in case as well.
Now if there was a spike I would expect it to trip the surge suppressor since it is only 10 amp capable.
Our light runs about 6.4 amps, our fan is 340 watts, the mover is about 23 watts for a total of about 7 amps. Not much allowable for a spike.
I am going to purchase one of those black and pecker doo-dads that measure the juice anything plugged into it uses. Maybe that'll show a surge of some kind.
