Do I need a starter for a DNaT lamp?

Paul asks:
Hello! You need to use a 400 watt lamp. In the store they said that some kind of starter is needed! Then a familiar electrician said that nothing is needed, only a cartridge is needed, whom I do not know to believe! And where to get it? Like a throttle and an izu.
The answer to the question:
Hello! You were rightly told in the store. A familiar electrician, apparently confused with a DRV lamp. For the operation of DNaT, as well as for other gas-discharge light sources, it is necessary to ensure the proper voltage and arc current. To do this, you really need chokes and IZU (pulse ignition device). Where to get? Buy, if not on sale, you can try to agree with those who in your city deal with street lighting (lampposts), there are often DNT lamps there. Connection schemes are usually either written on the chokes themselves, or on the IZU.
