Ballasts with crest factor control are provided. During a transition to a given half cycle steady state, the current provided to reach the steady state is varied, such as turned off for a short period. This reduction during the transition may reduce or eliminate overshoot. The crest factor control is active, such as altering the timing or number of on/off/on switchings used to control crest factor. The active control may be based on any information, such as time, lamp voltage feedback, or other lamp dependent feedback.
