Dear Mark Dapoz,
<< all I can think of is that someone may have "fixed" a
T-10 using a T-8 back plate. They look exactly the same except the T-8 has
an additional aluminum mounting ring screwed on to it. Here's a scan of the
front and back sides of a real T-8 and T-10.

Compare those to what you're seeing. >>
Thanks very much for those ppicture links to your site. They were very useful!
It really looks like it is a T-10 in this case. The only thing wrong is the
label designation, so your conclusion of:
<< I don't know then, all I can think of is that someone may have "fixed" a

must be correct. This is what I began to suspect when I saw the unit, but I
had only an 'intuition' to guide me. Your photos definitely reveal the truth.
The T-10 has been grafted onto a T-8 back plate with the T-8 label on it.
Thanks Mark and everyone else who replied!
Kind regards,
