That's a lovely lineup! Did you use the same ballast and ignitor setup to light each one? The variation in style, shape and size of the lamps makes me wonder if they are all of the same electrical spec.

The Philips and Venture are for Merc gear. But to complicate things even more, the Philips will strike on a 750v SI52 whereas the Venture needs a 3.5kv superimposed thing!

I've now ordered one of those Philips HPI-T lamps so will try an SI52 with it.
