I which case that's not a bad deal at all if it's basically an Oddysea with Icecap ballasts. Killer.

And yes, there would be ballasts for the PC's but whether or not they could drive T5's is another question. If you ask them what make and rating the ballasts are I could tell you better. But really, to put in a pair of Fulham Workhorse 5 ballasts (which can each drive 2x54 T5HO lamps) it's be cheap and easy. I just bought WH5s for $24 ea for my research from Commercial Lighting in Vancouver. The swap should only take you a couple of hours... probably only 15 mins for a master welder...

These are the same thing but a little cheaper, shipped via USPS so there is no duti/broker fees:
