If any of you users of the Aqua Ultraviolet UV Sterilizers need replacement bulbs and are a bit shocked on the price, here is an alternative I've been using for 3 years.
My 200 watt lamp from most all sources is $850.00 from here, they are only $375.00
Quality is great and from what I gather through customer service is, they ship from Aqua Ultraviolet. I believe its their exact same bulb.

 
Anyone :)
 
Thanks you for the link and the heads up, I am shocked on how much their units have gone up in price, to be honest they are about as simple to make as anything in this hobby, so the price point is daunting.
Have you sourced a ballast from this place as well?
 
I had to replace my ballast because of a power spike, I bought it off ebay, same ballast a tenth of the cost.
You would have to know the part number of said ballast though.
I've bought a few aqua uv's used over the years, outside of specific aqua uv parts, quartz and orings I've always bought aftermarket (bulbs & replacement ballast).

Their in house uv bulbs are ridiculously priced. I'm seriously considering lifeguard for the next time I need a uv setup.
