Hi,
I am hoping someone with more experience can give me a little advise on this.
I have 2 cfl 10w recessed lights on one switch. these are 4 pin g27 bulbs..
when i turn the switch on, one light comes on immediately whereas the other takes about .5 of a second before coming on? in the time it seems like there is a red/ orange glow at the base of the lamp.
Since these fitting have an external ballast, it would be be quite a bit of work to change it.
i was just wondering if anyone knew if the ballast was the cause of this?
i have already tried switching the bulbs around to no avail
Thank You!
