I think EH-I is your date code. Not sure what it means though. Neutral

Or 21863 might be a date code too, Day 218, 1963 Razz

Possibly...

That's most likely E-H1, which is a variety of 50s mercury vapour lamps! The ballast only mentioning "Constant Wattage" and being a CWI type is another giveaway, since CWA ballasts came out later in the 60s.
joe_347V   [Feb 23, 2012 at 02:48 AM]
Yeah, I agree since the entire line would read "For 1 400 WATT E-H1 "

Oh and here's how a EH-1 looks like.

Yes it is an E-H1! Early ballast code, it is what is called a "H-1" ballast opposed to the later "H-33" code. Nice find!
