Thats great Marc, although I have no idea what you're talking about
1. the bulbs don't have nipples, they are sort of squared off at the ends.
2. I'll probly replace them when I get some more money. I bought one of those Living Large Lottery tickets on Thursday so when I win that I'll definitely run out and get new bulbs
3. Capacitors and M59s. Yes I've heard about M57s but not M59s. Other than it being a ballast I don't know much more. I have 2 bare ballasts that are "Iwasakis shipped straight from japan" this is what the guy that sold them to me (secondhand) told me. I just nodded and smiled. Hmm capacitors. Well I just looked at them and they haven't melted any, they are pretty hot tho. The whole thing is hot, but thats not unusual. The ballasts say H37 on them and one of them is humming when you get real close. Is that bad?? I would assume so.
4.They are plugged into a surge protector powerbar. I have no idea whether the "surge protector" part actually does its thing tho. Man if those ballasts are fried I am gonna be ****ed. :x
That would be great if you could bring that new capacitor over for me. I'll have my electrician put it in
Thanks for the info Marc!
