one thing to note, if you are talking probe and pulse start a probe ballast will not start a pulse bulb, but a pulse ballast will start either.

also a thing to not usaly a pulse start ballast is only 15 bucks or so more than a probe type, by spending the extra money one a pulse start ballastt you will extend your usefull bulb life as it is kinder to the bulb with this method of starting.

so spend the extra couple bucks and get a pulse start. (Oh and for thoes that might wonder an HQI ballast is a pulse start type also. a little more bucks again but the best bang for your tank out of the 3)
