VEB82234 drives two circline bulbs, FC12T9 and FT16T9
Very short bulb life, one fixture refuses to start at all,
replaced bulbs in two, died almost immediately.
Pulled a ballast apart, brown gunk leaked from somewhere,
couple of electrolytic (68uF / 200v) caps seem to be a bit
swollen....
Is it worth fixing / troubleshooting, or simply take my
100 dollar lumps (home depot canada pricing) and use
something different...
thanks / mark
