Hi guys
One of our Martin atomics has generated an issue as where once it's given hi & fast out out for a few seconds the bulb then severely looses power to around about 25% maybe less output.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

This is what they do in blind mode.

From the manual - Lamp power is electronically regulated to prevent the lamp from overheating. The intensity falls as power is reduced.

Yes i saw that but I would have thought that it could last a little longer before reducing power, when we use 2 linked one dies down quite a bit before the other one, I would have thought they'd go both at the same time

Any discolouration of the tube? Excessive sooting?
