Power 1000W H36 Mercury lamp

[EJohnson]

Hello everyone;

I have a GE 1000W H36 (H1000C36-15) BT-56 Mercury vapor bulb I want t
power up but don't have the proper 1000W H36 ballast. I do have som
400W M59 MH ballast but the bulb lights up only partial way the
cycles. Could anyone here give me an idea on how to power the lamp u
to full brightness? Also, I tried a bank of capacitors in parallel wit
the lamp to increase the OCV voltage of the ballast; but still didn'
get the lamp to full light output. This is just a boring "weeken
project". Johnso
