Hello all,

I have a 1986 PT38. The 12 volt light ballast for one of the bedroom lights went out. I'm having a hard time finding a 12 volt ballast that will produce the 56 watts (or more) required for the 6' flourecent tube. There is no usable part number on the old ballast and BB was no help. Anyone out there know where to find the proper ballast?
Thanks, Don Meyer 561-703-7907

Thanks for the info. I called Steve and he does not have the right ballast. It's turning our to be a very dificult part to find. From what the "experts" are telling me, it has to be the proper ballast or it will not work. It must be 50 watts or more output (powers a 56 watt bulb) and obviously has to be 12 volt input. The bulb it powers is part # F72T12. single tube, one pin on each end.
Anyone with ideas, please let me know.
