Howdy ya'll.
I picked up this Co2 laser head from an auction a few weeks ago. There was a photo of it working at some point, and it seems to be in good cosmetic condition, but came with not information except that it could be powered by a 250 watt Linear amplifier of some sort....
I have found one video online showing it in use, aside from that I have no information as of yet.

If anyone could steer me in the right direction as far as powering it and what I'm looking at as far as the connections, it would be of great help.
I'v looked through Melles Griot's web site and found nothing, and the web hasn't given much yet as well.
Here are some photo's of the tube, perhaps if anyone can identify the inputs and perhaps what I should use to power it.
I do know the in and out are for the water cooling and from my understanding a simple fish tank pump should do the trick for that.
I also hear that a neon sign transformer can be used with these, or perhaps a Chinese PSU from ebay...
Thanks for any information ya'll might have or links that you've collected over the years.
