A GE Lucalox 215W HPS bulb

Nice glad to see you back into streetlights again

It looks like this uses neon gas. Weird since most HPS lamps use argon or xenon

You absolutely need to be extremely careful with running these GE EZ lux high pressure sodium lamps on constant wattage autotransformer (CWA) ballasts because these particular retrofit lamps have a rapidly rising arc voltage drop over the course of their lifetimes. Because of the constant current nature of CWA ballasts, they can run these lamps at dangerously high power levels, which could potentially severely overload the primaries of those ballasts and potentially destroy them. The best way to operate the GE EZ lux 215W retrofit lamps is to use an extremely hard to find 250W H37 mercury vapor high reactance lag type autotransformer (HX) ballast or a reactor (choke) ballast designed for either 208V, 240V, or 277V supplies in order to properly operate the GE EZ-Lux 215W high pressure sodium lamps.

I don't plan on using it much more than for the videos so I'm not too concerned but thanks for the advice.
