Hi all,
I've searched the group on Google groups and found two relevant
threads:
http://groups.google.co.uk/group/uk....7b3362e020eec1
http://groups.google.co.uk/group/uk....72693b3c1ae1ca
In one of them the starters from Tabelek are recommended.
http://www.tabelek.co.uk/product-300...be-starter.asp
Does that recommendation still hold?
I'm after starters that don't either (a) wait an interminable interval
before deigning to start up the lamp or (b) go
blink...blink...blink...blinkety-ahah!
I've been using standard Osram ST111s, and even with a new starter and
a new tube, the behaviour is generally (b).
Personally, I like the light to come on in a reasonably short period
after I've flicked the lightswitch, and not try and give me an
epileptic seizure while doing so.
The alternative is wiring in an electronic hf ballast - is this Part P
covered? If not, any recommendations on that score, and gotchas and
things to avoid?
Thanks,
Sid
