175W hamilton ballast needs repair. Where?
 
My buddys 175W hamilton ballast needs repair. Where in the lower mainland is the best place to take it to be repaired. The bulb initially starts to fire up but the ballast kicks out half way through fire up. Its really unstable all of the sudden.
thanks

I had a bulb from hamilton that did the same thing. Try another bulb first. A new bulb fixed it for me.

This is a brand new bulb from JL's. Ushio 10K. Dont know what to think.

I had a problem a couple of weeks ago with a Ushio 10000k from J&L.

It would start to fire and then quit. I returned it to J&L for a replacement a the new one worked fine.

Try another bulb first.
