175w Sunburst 12,000k blown already?

The bulb is running off of a Hamilton Ballast and is about 4 months old. It won't fire up. The ballast still works, I can hear and feel vibration on the enclosure. What do you think?

Call the vendor and ask for a free replacement. This brand is known for a high rate of infant mortality and they are usually pretty good about replacing them.

Thanks!

Actually I called MarineDepot today to order another. It is on its way, then I have to send back my bulb, unfortunately they will only cover 50%.

As Ninong mentioned, if you contact the manufacturer they are really good about getting a replacement out. You may consider contacting them and advising them of how MD is only covering 50% to see if they will work with you on the rest.

I received the bulb today from MD. I was given a RA number from MD to ship the bulb back for the 50% return. The bulb was purchased in January. I guess I will contact the Manufacturer first and see what to do.

Thanks!
