Hi, does anyone know anywhere that I can get an electronic ballast for 9w PL-S 4 pin lamp.
I've tried ebay and googled it but only available ones seem to be from china.
It's just for a small fish tank so not wanting to pay over the odds.
Lamp in question :-



Thanks

Right, ballast arrived but there's no diagram for the lamp I'm using.
The lamp holder originally was connected with 2 cables from a PCB so cant copy the wiring from that.
Any advice on how to connect it up correctly, I don't want to break it :LOL:
Thanks.

The lamp is just a curved tube

Left two pins is 1 filament, ballast terminals 1 and 2 any way round
Right two pins is other filament, ballast terminals 3 and 4 any way round

You will obviously now need 4 wires straight to that lampholder
