[GSAS-Member] Found! 8' flourescent light fixture



Some building was remolding, and I got an 8' light fixture out of the trash.
It has a "rapid start ballast" for four 4' lights. This isn't the same as an
"electronic" ballast, is it? I think the "tombstones" are for T-10 or T-8
bulbs. (Why is it called "T", tombstone? What does 12, 10, and 8 mean?)
Also, I was wondering if there was some kind of shock or strut or whatever
to make life easier for when I open the lid of the oak canopy top. It weighs
a ton, and it doesn't stay open, so I have to prop something in there. I
worked on a 300 gallon at a CWU, and they had something for their canopy
lid, maybe like what a screen door has, and it closed slowly. I can't
remember how it stayed open.
