are you explicitly looking for the 860W version or will the original 830W versions do? if so its worth searching for 830W ones just incase any of those show up

tho if you do find any, lemme know, I am very much wanting a 830W one to go with my own 860W one :)

I have also been looking for some of these lamps to test on some unusual ballasts I have recently obtained.

Interesting that a 830w version was made before the 860w version.

I think there's a few hits online around the $130-$150 mark. A bit much in my opinion but I think these were always fairly expensive. I got lucky and found mine at a Restore for about 1/10th of the that price.

 @LightBulbFun : Never knew there was a 830w version .

 @BT25 : There WAS one but is apparently sold Friday for $145.98

 There does seem to be a few available online but I really don't want to pay the asking price for them . Besides , all of the ones I've found online are the BT-37 version which are too small for my intended application , my Infranor series 85 flood light .

I came across some of these at a ReStore...they wanted $60 dollars each. I passed thinking that was to much...kinda wish I had bought them now...seems they're becoming unobtainable.
