Are these recent failures replacement ballasts, or more old units failing ?

Have you tried testing the supply voltage during start-up ? A voltage drop/low start-up voltage will fry a ballast over time

Have you opened any units to determine what is failing ? Capacitor/windings

Maybe a dumb question but, are you matching the recommended bulb types ?
