What else can I help you with?
How can you start the fluorescent lamp without starter?
Yes and no. It can run without a starter, but it can't start. The starter stores energy and releases it all at once, causing a higher voltage. The gas in the tube has a higher resistance when not lit, so it takes more voltage to start it glowing. Once it is glowing, the resistance is lower, so it can run without a starter.
Is a T8 ballast and T8 bulb more efficient then a T12 ballast and a T8 bulb?
In a T* ballast and T8 bulb more energy efficient then a T12 ballast and a T8 bulb? A:Depends on the CURRENT through the tube. When the Tube is run at 100% of rating, The T12 Takes more CURRENT to give a certain Brightness. Because the surface of the T8 is closer to the ion stream through the tube, it takes less CURRENT to light up the T8 to the same brightness. However, IF you use a T12 in a T8 ballast, you will get LESS CURRENT through the tube, and LESS POWER consumed ALONG with LESS Light.
Does a metal halide and mercury vapor use the same ballast?
No, metal halide and mercury vapor lamps do not use the same ballast. Metal halide lamps require a ballast specifically designed for metal halide lamps, while mercury vapor lamps require a ballast designed for mercury vapor lamps. Using the wrong ballast can result in poor performance and potential safety hazards.
How do you fix a fluorescent ceiling light that lights up seconds after the switch is turned on?
This issue is often caused by a faulty starter or ballast. You can try replacing the starter first as it is the simpler and cheaper fix. If the issue persists, it may be necessary to replace the ballast with a new one. Make sure to turn off the power before attempting any repairs.
Will a bad ballast effect only one lamp in a two lamp fluorescent?
Typically, a bad ballast will affect both lamps in a two-lamp fluorescent fixture. However, it is possible for only one lamp to be affected if the ballast failure is isolated to one side of the ballast that powers a single lamp.
Does a tube light glow without starter?
yes..if we replace magnetic ballast with electronic ballast...there is no need of starter if we use electronic ballast.
Is the starter and the ignition the same thing?
NO, they are not.
How can you find out what type of ballast you have if it has no marks on it?
ballast are either electronic or iron core induction type so at the end of the day it does not matter what type it is so long as it can handle the wattage of the tube you are trying to drive any thing will work so long as you have every thing in place that the new ballast needs,electronic types need nothing to work ballast types need a starter of some kind
Will a hps luminaire run a metal halide lamp?
Yes the ballast and starter are the same you can run halide in hps, but not hps in halide.
Is a starter compressor and a capacitor the same thing?
No.
Is a starter Pokemon the same thing as a beginning Pokemon?
Yes.
2000 Chevy astro starter engages while running changed starter still doing same thing except in drive and reverse?
just had the same thing turns out the automatic car starter went bad and fried the starter replaced it same thing the ignition switch also went bad replaced that too all set now
Are the starters in a Toyota Corolla the same as a Toyota matrix?
Starter of toyota corolla and matrix is not the same. The best thing you do if you change your starter by yourself is to remove and compare to the new starter.
Why is my tube light flickering intermittently?
Your tube light may be flickering intermittently due to a loose connection, a faulty starter, or a problem with the ballast. It is recommended to check and tighten the connections, replace the starter, or have a professional inspect and repair the ballast if needed.

What is the use of starter what is present inside the starter?
A fluorescent light starter is responsible for initiating the arc in the mercury vapor inside the tube. On fluorescent tubes with filaments at each end it also provides a delay for the filaments to heat up and evaporate mercury before trying to initiate the arc. The arc is initiated by the starter first permitting current to flow through the ballast coil which builds a strong magnetic field, then suddenly the starter opens the circuit which causes the magnetic field in the ballast coil to collapse, producing a strong inductive kickback and a brief high voltage pulse across the fluorescent tube. This high voltage pulse ionizes the mercury vapor causing it to generate an arc and emit UV light. Once the arc is conducting, the fluorescent tube bypasses both the starter and the ballast coil and neither does anything while the light remains on. There are many different designs of starters that perform this same function in different ways (e.g. bimetallic thermal switch, electromagnet switch, electronic starter). In newer systems with an "electronic ballast" there is no separate starter, instead the electronic starter circuit is built directly into the ballast unit and cannot be independently replaced.
