CMH on steroids

Anyone here running a allstart 860 cmh on a digital ballast?
It isn't a very good idea if the ballast isn't low frequency square wave.
A friend runs 860 on old core and coil ballasts , he said I should expect a 30% increase in intensity and I think he's right.
I had a look at his lights running and they didn't seem that bright, I put one on my horti platinum and it's crazy intense.
So, anyone doing this here?
Low freq square wave is the new thing for hid users. They're even making lfsw DE lights now.
 
Suppose I should have added a couple photos.

I'm patiently awaiting the arrival of DE CMH , they're doing low freq square wave over at revolutionmicro but it's mainly DE HPS .
Solis is doing some DE MH , not sure that they got all the bugs worked out or not, they were having a problem with lamps and failures with them. They were only offering a 6 month warranty on the MH DE but not sure. I think they warranty them for a year now.
