I just got a 55w SOX, found a extreme amount of black coating on the ends, and also found out that it only draws 52-54 watts and even later dropped to 49 watts from a WH3 with both outputs tied together. Is that underdrived, and is the lamp bad or really good (with the black coating)? I also heard that the black coating around the electrode area is actually the IR reflecting coating. Also, do I need a bigger ballast for this lamp?
