Default Small fluorescent lamp needed

Hello All

I need to find a source for a small fluorescent "U" lamp that measures
2 1/2 inches in its U shape and the tube diameter is 7/16 inches. A
single wire comes out each end and ithe wires are soldered to the pcb.
This lamp is in the base of a small statue. The electronic ballast is
powered by a 9 volt wall wort. The ballast is putting out about 1000
volts which is the starting voltage for this type of lamp according to
a pdf file I found for this type of ballast. I measured at the wires
where they enter the tube.

The voltage is supposed to drop to 500 volts ac when the lamp ignites.
Thanks in advance.

Check out sign shops.
They make custom bulbs all day long.
