Thomas & Betts S62 ballast
This came from a small yardblaster I found at the recycle centre. The mounting plate was busted so I saved the ballast and socket and scrapped the fixture housing. I do have a few 70W HPS lamps but they're all stored at my cousin's place LOL. So I'll have to get them to test this ballast.

I'll make a test board with this.

Cool! I have a 70W lamp but no ballast for it. Woudl i be able to test it on a 50W HPS ballast without damaging anything? What about testing a 400W HPS on a 250W HPS?

Nice find! I turned a similar Advance 70w HPS ballast into a ballast can once.
