Caster 175W Clear MV Arctube Closeup
Here's a close up shot of a 175W Caster clear mercury lamp running on a yardlight fixture, the yellow light you see reflected on the arctube is a HPS or LPS light I was running when I took the pic. (I don't recall which lamp was it)

Yeah, I did do an experiment with 250 Watt Mercury Lamp using the incandescent bulb years ago. I did attempted to apply 250 Watts of incandescent bulb all together and made it in series circuit. It worked for a bit before it extinguished. That was my first attempt to make my own ballast since I didn't have a ballast for the 250 Watt version...
