Ok folks, I recently purchased off of ebay a manetek 1130-91r ballast does anyone know if this ballast needs a probe start or a pulse start bulb?
I have been having trouble with a cheap(ebay) bulb that wont start and i am thinking because its a pulse and not a probe.
I think my ballast is a probe because from what i have read posted here it would have 3 componets ballast, capacitor, igniter.
all I have is a ballast and capacitor, wich with a home depot bulb does work!
sooooo, my rationale is i have a pulse bulb but I need a probe!
but I cant find a real clarifacation on the bulb or ballast or identifying specs for either of them!
well if any one can help out i would very much appreciate it!!!
Thanx
Herman
