That DX phosphor certainly gives a good colour for a mercury lamp Cool

It should run pretty much perfectly on a 70W HPS choke. Is that the 700W Thorn MBFR you got from me that I can see?

Thank you. The colour is quite nice for these lamps. Next I will dig up the type N Styltone I have. I still need to get at least one clear in that A shape. I think finding any other phosphors would be very hard. I will Try the 70W SON choke. Yes Andy there is the 700W Thorn MB and the 400W SON/R on the test bench.
