Gentlemen,

Is there some reason why one cannot have flourescent tubes and LED
floodlamps running off a common supply? I have found that when
paralelling up the LED floodlamps with flouro tubes, the tubes no
longer work; don't even try to start-up, despite the fact that have
full mains voltage connected to them. The LEDs OTOH, are totally fine.
Anyone else had this experience?

maybe you need eggs and baking powder with the Flouro tubes

Or buy better quality 'grow lamps'

Oh I see what all these odd remarks are about now. No, this is in
relation to my earlier thread about replacing the workshop tubes as
they'd grown dim over time. Don't need "grow lamps" where I am
anyway.
