Try Amazon.com- got both CFL high output 2.5 wpg bulbs and balasts for less than 200 bucks.

there is no starter. I already took it apart, one light works, one light didn't . I switched the bulbs, and the bulbs are fine. could be the ends though, I can pick those up at lowes.

Could be bad sockets or connections , you could try reseating all the wires into the sockets.

But..I've had this happen before and it's probably a bad ballast. For $13 it's not a bad deal...just replace it and press on
