beware of PCBs in old fixtures (in the capacitors inside the ballast) -
makes them very hazardous waste, and not a good thing to put in the
trash/landfill

Yeah, and the scrap guys are proly burnin'em in 55 gal drums, to get at the
copper...

I found some brand new 2 bulb 4' fluorescent fixtures for what appears to
be
a deal @$12 each. The big question is they are rated for 277 volts ...how
do
I get there from 240v? and will the switching remain simple & cheap? any
down side to this set up?
