Might be cautious of nonaircraft versions.  I understand they use an
around 90V square-wave to keep 'em glowing, and that could annoy the
heck out of avionics!
It would be nice also if they told you the current draw, as while the
lamps may consume less power after 20kV startup, I don't think cooling
fins on a power supply are just decorative.

Best,
