125/80 watt mercury vapor ballast
One of my two 125/80 watt mercury vapor ballasts and ceramic E27 socket. It has 2 taps on the choke for a 125 watt or 80 watt lamp.

I bought them on German eBay because finding these things in Sweden is extremely difficult, despite the fact that mercury lighting is very common here. The only store I know that sells mercury vapor ballast in Sweden refuse to sell to non-professional customers. 17 € (23 US$) shipping for two these heavy things, but after searching for over a year in other places I bought them

Thats a nice ballast there, that is the most frusterating thing when they dont even sell ballasts or lighting supplies commonly used to consumers...
