Although this ballast will run 10K bulbs (and sometimes 20K), it is designed for 65K Iwasaki bulbs. It burns those bulbs both brighter and whiter than a regular MH ballast (with nearly 2x the par of 10K bulbs). This particular ballast is approximately one year old and has the old-style molex sockets (the kind of connector/socket used by ice cap). I believe that an adaptor can be purchased ($5 each) to convert the two sockets to the new 3-prong style or you can wire the connection yourself. Retail price new on the net (at Marine Depot, for example) about $146 + shipping. I am asking $85 + shipping.
Note: the shipping weight for this item is 45 lbs., and I will add the actual shipping cost to the price once I know where it will be going. I live in Oregon (97405) and here are a couple of sample shipping costs (via UPS ground): $41 to Baltimore, MD.; $22 to Los Angeles, CA.
