I finally got an NEMA bucket, so I'm now bucket buddies with everyone else with a NEMA bucket, lol. I ended up putting an advance cwa 175w ballast in it. This didn't come with a Ballast, so I have added an advance cwa ballast. The cap will be mounted in the arm so it doesn't overheat.
Bingo. There is also an Norelco that is abandoned and I'm going to go to that house tomorrow and talk to the owners. The light appears to have no pc (or a short "open" cap and no lamp, so I don't think they'd have any problem with giving it up. They also have an 100w mh bucket but it's newer.
Update: this fixture is now with a 100w :hps: ballast and sylvania lamp. The cwa ballast is in a remote ballast box. I also got an ITT NEMA ballast that can use both latched and screw mount buckets. The latter ballast is going to be saved until I get another neam bucket.
