my hanabi ballasts are still kicking with no problems what so ever. People have mixed reviews. Bottom line for me is that you have to keep your ballast dry. I wrapped mine in a light foam that just keeps stray droplets away. Working so far!

Considering the percentage of Hanabi owners that have had serious problems, I doubt it's as simple as the ballasts getting wet. Especially since Hanabi kits have had problems with bulbs more so than with ballasts.
As for wrapping your ballast in foam, that sounds pretty dumb to me. If you're worried about the ballast getting wet, why would you wrap it in a material that holds moisture? It would make WAY more sense to wrap it in duct tape or some other waterproofing type wrap. Come to think of it, spraying the entire unit in a plasticized underbody coating material would probably work REALLY well.

hanabis are made from a korea based company called "Vision company." Their parts are known to be cheap and ...as many of us have seen...blow out quicker than usual.
