Not a 14% variance though.. usually the tolerance on a ballast is small, I would have to look it up to be sure but I am thinking +/- 5watts if that. anyways the way you are running is indicating that it is totally messed up as you are getting yellow out of a 14K bulb which should be blue... period. I would try it on a proper ballast so you can see the difference.
