Recently my chokes (ballast) got burned out. And I need replacement. But I'm finding it hard to get one. The electrical shops in BVK Iyengar road say that the choke used in the light fitment is a custom made one (compact in size etc). Whereas the std. chokes are much bigger and don't fit in the frame.

Any idea where I can get them?

[My light dome is the typical one like this: http://www.google.co.in/imgres?q=aquarium+lighting&um=1&hl=en&sa=N&biw=1366&bih=677&tbm=isch&tbnid=9CX33wzjeUh3UM:&imgrefurl=http://amazonaquarium.co.in/index.php/cPath/102&docid=etT8vwIifZb43M&imgurl=http://amazonaquarium.co.in/images/T5.jpg&w=384&h=271&ei=06HcTtbVBIXJrQeA7ZilCA&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=324&vpy=391&dur=3424&hovh=189&hovw=267&tx=192&ty=111&sig=102428760181770692697&page=1&tbnh=131&tbnw=186&start=0&ndsp=18&ved=1t:429,r:13,s:0]

You can always rewire and place the ballast at some place else.

I have PLLs in my tank (with regular box including a place for ballast), but have fixed the ballasts on the hood in the back.

Thanks Deepak. That's exactly what I'm trying to do : )
