250w Sylvania MS Metalarc
1 x 250w BT shape probe start metal halide lamp with a special curved arc tube so the lamp can only be ran horizontally and with a special E39-PO socket that corectly positions the arc tube.

Designed for use on an M58 constant wattage auto-transformer but it seems to strike and run just fine on a normal 240v 250w MBF choke.
Lights with a nice bright warm white.

Yes indeed, nice finds there. Only reason here our mercury gear have lower OCV and may not start reliably.
