GB brought next idea :
We have some 10 year old Fitzgerald fluorescent lights. On one of these the
inductor has broken down. I don't want to replace the whole fitting as they
all match at the moment. Unfortunately Fitzgerald Lighting went toes up last
December. Any idea where I can source a new inductor, please? For a 4 ft
fitting - 36/40 w. BTW, I assume it's an inductor - the big ballast thingy
inside the fitting.

Just drop in to any good electrical wholesaler and ask for a a choke or
ballast unit for a 4 foot 36/40w fitting. I assume the fitting has a
starter?
