18 watt SO
It lives!, fired up on a somewhat none standard ballast and ignitor set up, (more about that in a bit), my Frankenstein lamp lights up!

Fair play!

Like Dan says, at least there’s no chance of the jar going black within the first 2000 hours! Very Happy

It's a nice homebrew creation! I wonder how long it would last?

I wonder if this could be at least partially resistively ballasted, if so then use some halogen lamp and put that inside the jar too, that would help reduce the overall power so extend the SOX lamp life
