My Collection: 50W/70W SON/MH Gears

This page documents my 50W/70W high-pressure sodium (SON) gears. They can also run most metal halide lamps of the same wattage. I have lots of 50W and 70W SON lanterns, so I have some spares left over from lamp-conversions and such. I don't currently have any free-floating gear-boards, but I plan to change that and create something to test my SON 70 lamps.

To create a gear-board, I plan to use this ballast and ignitor. It came from a WRTL 2600.

Both have date-codes: the ignitor dating to September 1999, the ballast dating to 4th April 2000.
