| Here are pics while testing.
I was expecting a larger & much brighter lamp but it's just over 5 inches in length and about as bright as a 40/50w MV. However, it is largely baffled in the hooded attachment. There's an open window which I'm sure was for an adjustable slit. I asked the seller to contact me if he finds it. The P.S. is in great condition. I also checked the spectrum, basic clean Hg line spectrum visually.
Here are some numbers with my Kill-a-Watt meter:
At 120.7 volts, 60.0Hz
Consumed Current= 2.17 amps
Power consumed = 128 Watts
Power Factor = 0.48

Thanks, the power factor sucks, I'll have to see what value capacitor works, if there's room inside. Is it an E26 or admedium cap, I can't quite tell from the picture  |

| I haven't opened the PS compartment. Seller said there are two transformer parts, which leads me to believe there might be a 240volt choke in there & a bump-up transformer. Should I open it?

| Glad you ended up getting it. Must be an early one if it uses a separate transformer and choke coil.

| E26 cap, nicely fits any medium socket.
The ballast is the typical North American auto-transformer ballast. The seller might have seen the two coil segments and thought there were separate.

| It's our Canadian Thanksgiving on Monday, so it will go out Tuesday. Sadly, I can't exploit free Tuesday shipping on CanadaPost.ca since it's going to the UK.
On the other hand, I can ship less the 2 kilos for free to the States. Or up to 5 kilos for free to Canada. Yes, every Tuesday for October one parcel is free shipping. So start trading!

| Its great to know that another lamp collector got it and not someone looking for old lab equipment. I was about to get it myself if it stayed up a few days longer.
