Any electrical guys?

Just wrap them in aluminum foil and call it good.

S55, that's for a 150 watt light, that what you have?

Bulb says "pulsrite 150w s55 LU150/med"
I'm just using a regular medium base light socket.

you've exceeded my knowledge base, you're on your own son

I emails the place I got the ballast kits from. Hopefully they have an answer.

Does the generator have gas in it??

Hummers are good.

If they're anything like trailer lights, the only place they'll work properly is in your yard, and then only once for about 3 minutes.

I tested it and I have 122v at the socket. But the bulb won't kick on. This is really starting to piss me off. I hate electrical!!

Check the flux capacitor

I'd be happy just to get a little light out of them when they are plugged into the wall in my house. The only thing I can come up with is the ignitors are bad. But I tried 4 different ones and Didn't work with any of them So I'm all out of ideas.

It's not the volts that kills you, its the amps

I unplug the box every time before I mess with the wires.

Those are DC lights and you're plugging them into an AC outlet.

Whoops! Maybe if you were in Europe they would work?

Where do you get 120v DC power from?

How the fuck should I know, do I look like Thomas Edison??

Nice crayon schematic.

Ha!

I think they sent me the wrong ignitors. My lights and ballasts are 150w and the ignitors are 200w-400w.

What'd I say? You were creating a feedback loop because the lamps weren't right. I said that days ago, dammit.

I'm gonna wait and see what the manufacturer says. Then maybe I'll get an electrician. But I don't really want to pay someone $100/hour to hook up bowfishing lights.

[DeadEye_Dan]

Well, I'm done giving out free electrical advice.
