I ordered one on eBay, but the idiots at USPS probably lost the package.  There’s been no movement since March 1. This is my Plan B to try and get my own F40T12 preheat fixture. |

HID, LPS, and preheat fluorescents forever!!!!!!

| Are you looking for a single tube fixture, dual tube fixture, or a 3 tube fixture? I am still looking for some 4 lamp F40T12 preheat fluorescent tube louvered egg crate fixtures that use brick ballasts and use milk glass side panels. I can see if I can link some facebook marketplace preheat F40T12 shoplights.

| A 2 lamp fixture would be great. I don’t have a Facebook account and never will.
A 3 lamp is also fine.

| Offerup might be a good place to start. I got a 2 lamp preheater from Offerup.
Unfortunately, Offerup, does not seem to show any listings for preheat F40T12 fluorescent tube shoplights. One thing you might do is get a rapid start shoplight and then convert it to preheat. If you are looking for an original fixture, you will probably need to be patient.
