Hi,
http://www.eyelighting.com/mhconversioncleanace.html

R version has the UV shield. I believe there is an Iwasaki distributor in BC. So, you can contact them to make sure that they have it. Then call Albrite to call them to get that bulb....I don't think the distributor can sell directly to you (but you can try). Or...you can buy a UV shield.

As for your ballast, I'll get back to you on that one...I'll find you a more common ballast (the one they recommend works with 4 different line voltages...which we don't need and they tend to be rare). Say...what does Albrite say that they recommend for a MV ballast ?
-------

opps...type R is not the UV shield version. Its the version with a resistor in the bulb. I'll try to find out what's the story, but supposedly this is a newer bulb. The old ones don't have the R designation.

- Victor.
