I have a subject for one of our Fall meetings.

[Delphinus]

Actually Bob I think it is the bulb. Luckily if it is I will be able to exchange it (I have already been in contact with HelloLights.com). One bulb fires no matter what ballast it is on, and the other does not fire no matter what ballast it is on. I'd like to try this on Alan's ballast to see if I can get 3 for 3.. if so then back it goes and I'll await its replacement. Both my ballasts are working now. Luckily I have an old Iwasaki I can use in the meantime while I await the new one.
