Anyone find a use for old VHO bulbs?

I'm starting to build a collection of them and I'm to cheap to throw them out.

could I use them on my FOLR tank and if so, wouldn't I need a VHO ballast ?

is there a low cost ballast out there (home depot?) that can handle one or two VHO bulbs?

Would old bulbs cause algae growth- or is the resaon for replacing only for coral growth.

I dont think theres any actual use for them though once there intenisty is gone.
