Caryl Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Have you tried Dick Smith or Jaycar? Otherwise, an electrical wholesaler should have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pegasus Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Thanks Alan... but I think lorenceo is looking for the types without a starter... but if you don't mind the starter lorenceo.. then I can help you out as I have several unused units Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pies Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Any electrical supplier have electronic ballasts (master trade, coreys, egley). There are many brands, i've seen people using ATCO. All available in NZ. Pie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegasus Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 Most of my units "are" ACTO... EC 58/65 .. although I have several smaller sizes of the ACTO .. EC40-EO, and a few Phillips 40watt SS cat# Z212 types. They would come with bi-pin endcaps.. starter.. and capacitor as needed. Email me if you get stuck.. I'll give you a good deal on two or more units. Bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
