Need help. Purchased a new 40-ga bulb for sv150t illuminator. Installed it the other day. Bulb came on, fan didn't. Installed a new fan and now the bulb doesnt come on but the fan does. Any ideas.
Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug, If the bulb is turned on without the fan cooling it, the bulb failure will result very quickly. This sounds like what happened.

can you use an LED bulb instead of a metal halide if you remove the ballast and is the ballast part of the 40-0001 metal halide light

Hi Ralph, Unfortunately, you can replace this lamp with a LED bulb.

If I have the old casing, can I just replace the bulb?
Is the old casing critical to the functioning of the new bulb?

Hello Sergio,depending on how long you've had your light and the condition its in, I would say the fan isn't functioning and your casing is rusty I would replace the whole light.

A question was asked about replacing the lamp with LED. Your answer was "Unfortunately you can replace with LED". Did you mean can't? I would also like to relamp with LED.

There is not an LED replacement for this lamp. Switching to LED lamps like the SaVi Melody lights is quite an undertaking. You would need to remove all fiber optic lighting and install new wiring and lamps.

I am looking for 40GA 40-0001 lamps. We have quite a few of the controllers that require these lamps. Is there a replacement. On the website it stated SV400001 and SAV40-0001. Do you have any of these in stock and if so how many. Thank you.

Hi, Shawn. This Replacement Lamp - 40-0001 is the correct replacement lamp which we do have available.

Hi. I was wondering how many lumens does the 150w metal halide produce? I am trying to figure out if I can replace the entire system with LED but don't know the exact equivalent wattage. Thanks in advance!

will the bulb on the lifetime illuminator 6004 work on the svt150t

Unfortunately the bulb on the 6004 illuminator will not work on the svt150t and there is not a replacement we are aware of. You may want to consider replacing your SV150T tower with the Fiberstar 6004 Illuminator

also with the 6004 illuminator if the bulb is burnt out will the unit still turn on.
