G.E.C 200w SLI/H on Parmar 175w CWA ballast.

Wired up correctly and although the current doesn't go through the roof, the voltage still drops through the floor.
Interesting how the Thorn HO lamp likes this ballast while this G.E.C lamp doesn't want to play...

very interesting! the important part of things is mainly the lamp current, so I think this is still a pretty good result but is interesting how as you say the voltage still drops quite a bit! how was lamp flicker in this case?

I wonder if theres someone who could lend you set of proper 200W SLI/H gear to take some measurements from Smile

Not as bad as before but still quite noticeable.
I doubt anybody would want to risk it in the post lol.
