Is this /DX?

Yep I believe it is (or something close to it).

Thanks! Are you going to put this in regular service in a yardlight or something?
joe_347V   [Apr 02, 2012 at 01:19 AM]
Probably not since it's such a odd lamp here. I have a Sylvania 100w MV in service in my yard though.

Cool! I am guessing you love MV lamps also? I do! I only have one MV light, though
joe_347V   [Apr 02, 2012 at 01:22 AM]
Yep! I have five factory MV yardlights, the rest were converted from HPS using MH ballasts. Razz
