is it the fat lamp like a t-12 size, or a skinny one like a t-8?  maybe a picture would help. anfd when measuring a flourecent lamp ( linear tube-type) you should measure end to end including the pins or the total length.  I know that it's a obsolete size, but can be replaced by a lamp thats close to it's length, the ballast should be rated for between 12-20 watts
(single tube)

No such beast anymore Matt - Ltransam and I both hunted with no luck!
But here is the solution in a previous discussion -

Matt,

Got your box in the mail on Friday. Did you apply power to the motors? What did they do (hum, whine, smoke) and have you taken them apart or done anything to them?
