"Workhorse" is more than a name
I have been using two Fulham Workhorse 5 WH5-120-L to power F24T5 High Output for 6 years, 14 hours per day, every day.
I have each ballast configured to overdrive 2 lamps, which means using a 4-lamp ballast fully to drive only 2 lamps, at about 267% of their design wattage. These Fulham Workhorse 5s have worked flawlessly. The T5 lamps (tubes/bulbs) do get hot, but not hot enough to be a safety hazard. The ballasts run nice and cool. The ballasts are still working within their design parameters, and doing so exceedingly well.
I'm getting ready to upgrade another T5 fixture, and I did consider experimenting with a slightly cheaper brand of ballast. The best outcome of that experiment is that I would save about $3 dollars, amortized over a period of over 30,000 lighting-hours (so far). I expects these WH 5s will give me well over 100,000 service-hours. I should have my head examined for even contemplating messing with success.
They are very reasonably priced. The things refuse to fail, even on custom-builds like mine. If you are not making a hot-rod system, all the better. I recommend you use Fulham ballasts, and 1000bulbs has the best price and service.
Disclosure: I have no connection with Fulham. My only connection with 1000bulbs is that I have been a customer since 2009. I am writing this review merely as an extremely satisfied consumer who wants to share a positive experience. So much disposable junk is sold nowadays, and these ballasts break that paradigm.

Very versatile, high quality ballast
I'm glad I found Fulham fluorescent ballasts. Seems to be very high quality, very quiet, very competitively priced, and best of all runs practically a million different bulbs. I actually bought this one to run a 55W SOX low pressure sodium lamp for a full cutoff fixture design project, which it does very well. It's great for prototyping as well due to its versatility. Also ran a weird 40W T9 twin compact type insect zapper lamp perfectly. I'll definitely be sticking with Fulham for my projects and replacement needs, and 1000bulbs has pretty much the complete lineup, which is much more than a good bit of the other online retailers. It does run certain lamps with a lowish ballast factor if you dig around on fulham's website for spec papers, but I guess that's the tradeoff for being able to run so many different configurations.

Drop in replacement works great
The local stores don't carry T5 ballasts, and when you need one, you need it now. 1000bulbs delivered it promptly, wiring and mounting was easy, and it fired right up.

Definitely the workhorse I was looking for.
The Fulham Workhorse 5 is a total package design for low to moderate wattage needs. It can pretty much power any kind of light bulb you need. And since it is electronic, it runs silent which is always a plus. Could not do with the humms. The Workhorse 5 gets a little warm and could get hot if not in a properly ventilated area. I could rest my hand on the WH5 after it had been running for 8 hours, I was expecting an almost give you a blister type of hot. I was pleasantly surprised that it ran much cooler.

Fulham Workhorse 5
The only thing I did not like about the Workhorse 5 is there are no Blue wires and only one Yellow wire (no wiring instructions at all). Once I hooked the Blue wires from the lamp fixture to 2 of the Red wires from the ballast and both Yellow wires from the fixture to the single Yellow wire of the ballast everything worked fine. The replacement ballast is much lighter in weight, smaller in size and so far, has worked flawlessly! This ballast is used in an application where the lights are on for 12 or more hours at a time.
