I find it amazing to see that the price is still pretty low especially for the fixture and rare lamp.

Quote from: lights*plus on October 29, 2020, 09:07:50 PM Exactly why would a collector want to restore this if the ballast is toast, never mind the lamp? Just to clarify, I'd rather invest in a clean, unrusted fluorescent bulkhead fixture, modify it by adding an SLI/H ballast, add the proper sockets and get a known working lamp. In the description there's a reference to another similar fixture (likely sold) which makes me believe the one still up on auction is a mess. So beware! I did get my 60w SLI/H lamp to work properly on a 50w PSMH ballast and a FS4 starter today. Very blink happy startup.

You should still test the lamp if you win it. Mine was able to work very well on the 50w MH ballast I got today.

The thing is, I don't need or want a complete fixture. I don't have the space and at the end of the day I'm a lamp collector not a fixture collector. I'm interested in the lamp itself, so all I want is a working lamp and ballast.

As I said, I don't want a fixture, I want a working lamp and ballast, and this listing doesn't confirm either is actually working. Not worth the effort on my part. I hope that whoever does get it can restore it, though.

I just hope that whoever wins the fixture will not trash the original SLI/H lamp for the purpose of converting it to LED while restoring this fixture.

I don't know who won it, but it went for a lot more than we were willing to pay for a lamp in that condition.!!
