I have a Blue Wave 430 watt ballast.

I believe this replacement capacitor works but they are always out of stock.

Would this one from eBay be compatible?

Call somebody with the cap in your hand. Sometimes these need a phone call with a human instead of a website. 1000 bulbs might be a good place to start.

The 3 things that distinguish capacitors are: - capacitance (mf), whether AC or DC and rated voltage. As far as I can see this one is a perfect substitute as all 3 characteristics match..
