Title: Fluorescent lamp starter bad? Post by: ss4osu on August 29, 2011, 08:33:13 PM I have replaced the lamps inside the top of my round top Bally machine, one of the lights came on when I played with the lamp starter, but the other light would not come on until I switched the starter to that light, is there an easy way to get new lamp starters?

Homedepot or Lowes have them. Title: Re: Fluorescent lamp starter bad? Post by: stayouttadabunker on August 29, 2011, 11:45:29 PM :208- :97- Not much easier than that! :96-

And what's the final outcome, thay make the fluorecent light tube light up, same as the old style starter !! Title: Re: Fluorescent lamp starter bad?

And what's the final outcome, thay make the fluorecent light tube light up, same as the old style starter !! I had to replace one ballast already because it buzzed so loud and a few others are getting louder. And most of my lamps (all new) sometimes take quite a while to start (but it's not the starters). But yes, just like many of my other projects - 'just because'. :186- There is a lot of 10 on e-bay for $20, so it's not that expensive. Title: Re: Fluorescent lamp starter bad?
