Program Start Two-Lamp F40T12 Electronic Ballast « on: July 10, 2024, 08:42:10 PM » Author: fluorescent lover 40
Looking for one of these for a frequently switched light that I'd like to keep T12 if possible. A link to any or the model number for the ones that were made would be great.

I think a 2 lamp 36W PL-L CFL electronic ballast would suffice since many of them are programmed start electronic ballasts and have been aware of 36W PL-L CFL lamps being electrically interchangeable with F40T12 fluorescent tubes.

Here is one of those ballasts that should work for this application:

For this ballast, you might have to splice in some longer wire if you were to use F40T12 fluorescent tubes.

Thanks for the info and link. I have plenty of wire so that isn’t an issue for me.
