Need help selecting bulb/lamp

[hansh]

I have an old Telex Firefly P350 projector on which the bulb has expired. The bulb is a double ended (horizontal, ceramic ends), 270W, metal halide bulb. That is about all I know about the bulb. There is no reference information on the bulb.

The projector still fires up without the bulb (lcd, fans, controls). The reflector is fixed to the projector and separate from the bulb.

I'd like to try to solder another double-ended bulb into it using the native ballast and leads. I've searched around various forums and it looks like others have done something similar.

I realize that it is still a gamble. Any help appreciated.

do you have picture of bulb?

Thanks for the reply ywh. Yes, that is the projector that I have.

I've removed the ceramic ends from the bulb just in case I can reuse them. The bulb was slightly longer than in the photo and there was a coated wire exiting each end.

I hava 270W, metal halide bulb, but no ceramic ends .
you have to rebuild ceramic ends if you get my bulb.
bulb like this I can take off the metal ends ,so it is a double no metal ends bulb, double wires.
OK?
how long is your need?
