Is the ignition voltage/fequency the same for HPS and LPS?

Regardless, I'd give it a try.

No, they're not all the same, but as far as I'm concerned the price difference between the top of the line and the generic stuff, doesn't justify the price difference ($100.00 in some cases).

I'm cheap, so for now I'm using the entry level stuff. Something like these.....
