I Published A Lamp Spec Google Sheet! « on: May 04, 2025, 09:15:47 PM » Author: Multisubject
Thank you so much to Alex for providing the original document that this sheet was adapted from, and thank you so much to LightBulbFun for providing the links for the free lamp standards. All sources for the information shown on the document are included where possible. This sheet is ongoing and contains some incomplete information. If you have any resources that can fill in the gaps, please put them in the comments, I will check as often as I can so I can quickly update it.

The main purpose of this is so that you can mix and match ballasts or even make your own ballasts, but even just for testing lamps it is useful to know.

Aaaaaand *drum roll please* Here it is!

Again this is ongoing so if something is missing one day, it might be there another day.

I hope this helps people!

also some additional ballast impedance values can be gleaned from this catalog :)

(tho note there is a slight typo that for the HPS lamps it gives a system voltage of 200V, but I think its meant to say 220V!)

Goodness! You just keep it coming! I will definitely take a look at that and link it in the sheet.
Thank you, once again!
