Subject: What happens when a flourescent ballast "goes out"?
It seems to me that a flourescent ballast is probably just a transformer and
a high-voltage electrolytic cap. And when it "goes out" it's probably because the cap failed. If these are true, could I just replace the cap and make it work again? Assuming (hate that word) of course that I could get the ballast open. What thinks the group? Please offer whatever laughing criticism or encouragement you feel is appropriate. I do not need a fire hazard in the kitchen... Many thanks, Dave You must Sign in before you can post messages.
