Krypton arc lamps

[John Barrett]

Does anyone here have any experience with krypton arc lamps ?? especially
the power supplies ??

I'm looking for information to setup power for a pair of 8000 watt tubes
(yes, thats 16kw !!)

I've been informed that in some cases an arc welder (with modifications ??)
can be used to run these lamps

Any info appreciated !!
