Gerg, I was running a 175 Ushio on a M57 ballast and it did run but I wouldent do it again!, the problem I had was in bulb starting.. the bulb almost never started the fist shot and for the first 3 month it took anywhare from 4 to 40 restarts to stay lit, after the 3 months it got better.. between 2 and 10 restarts normaly 3. This is because of the lack of a starter on a M57 ballast.
Now having said that others have run them on M57's with no problem at all, and when I asked on here very few had seen this problem, but yet when I asked J&L about it there reply was that it is commen for 10000K bulbs to require more that one try to start and that I should just leave it and it will start eventualy, and after a few months it will be fine. so as Troy said for the extra 18 bucks get the other one if it isn;t to late.
