I have to go along with E57...we make the old ones work, unless the fixture body/lens is in bad shape.
Yes, sometimes it is cheaper to replace the fixture, but the ultimate decission is the clients.
BTW< I have a few 'spares' in the shop.....just in case we need 'something' in a big rush.
It's getting easier (inventory wise) with the new ballasts 120-480 volt in one unit. Now the bulbs should follow......compact 400 & 1000 MH, pulse start, pos. oriented, dual arc tube 1000 watt HPS, and on & on.
