Upon request, I have done a power usage test on a 150 Watt HP Sodium lamp. I used a S200.16 kilowatthour meter in series with the ballasted lamp, a normal 150W external sodium ballast was used. The usage was just over 800 Wh over a 5 hour period which equates to about 160-165 Wh use per hour. Halfway in the video there was a double capsule 150 Watt Sodium lamp under test and the faulty Metal Halide lamp glowing blue in slow motion and normal speed. My summer test set up on our outside deck in the sun when the misses let me.
