WTB: 400W ballast

[spleify]

Hi all. I am looking for a 400W ballast, as mine has taken a dump. Or even if someone has an inexpensive 250W ballast and SE bulb they want to sell, I need to do this soon, as I have been without lights for 2 days now already.

Thanks

P.S. does any one know anything about PFO ballasts, can these things be fixed?

Thanks

i have a dual 250 se sitting in my basement if you want to borrow it till you find something. I don't want to sell it, but it would be nice to see if it works as I haven't tested it yet. You can borrow till you find what you need.

Thanks John!! Can you run just one bulb on those? Or do you have to run 2?

Thanks Maybe we can hook up tomorrow yet!

If that is a magnetic ballast it can be repaired more than likely. The capacitor takes a dump, cheap and easy fix.

THanks for the info Steve, I believe that is exactly what it was.

68Rustang(Tony) hooked me up BIG time. He had some extra parts and we got the thing fixed in his kitchen in about 10 minutes.

Thanks again Tony!! Beautiful tank too!!
