Yesterday evening/night.. before putting away a fair number of strings of Christmas lights, all were checked over for dead 'bulbs'.. replaced just 5 or 6 dead LEDs total. One string got set aside for later (a defective LED somewhere so half the string is out) didn't feel like trying to find the problem. Two strings got thrown in the 'pile of junk lights'.

Quote from: fluorescent lover 40 on February 19, 2021, 02:25:51 PM GX23 base From what I understand, the GX23 13w PL-S and PL-C lamps can run on a 120v choke while the G24 2 Pin 13w PL-C lamps need 220-240v chokes or 120v autotransformer ballasts.
