P.S. Danny, I'll get you the camera on Saturday.

I dont think Its wouldnt be a capacitor problem because I had a ballast that did have Cap problemand it just didnt fire the bulb any more and I had tried everything like yourself.
If you have a extra bulb or a buddy with a MH bulb try it and see if your Balast fires it.

But I definetly dont think you should have to baby the bulb to get it to fire.
