Almost impossible to find a supplier for one 120V Ballast. Middies have tons of 240V Ballasts, but nothing for USA specs. I'm afraid you will have to buy from the USA.

Bought myself a few 110v 50z/60hz Ballast today from the US, I'll have a couple spares if anyone needs one .
The 240v conversion is a good idea , will see how we go when they arrive.
The photo I posted was of my Shrek that was Aust delivered , I checked my other Aust Sterns and they are all fitted with 110v 60Hz ballast.
