Pat Hi Pat, I generally agree with you, but I've found that when it's time to replace the lamps it is just about as cheap to replace the ballast with an electronic ballast and switch to inexpensive triphosphor F32T8 lamps. Cheap 4' shoplight lamps are usually only 25W or 34W now even though they say F40T12, and they don't put out nearly as much light as they used to. This is a good tip. I'll print this out and see if we can get them locally. Thanks.
