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

Susan,

If you have not found a way to counter balance your canopy by the
auction, I would be happy to talk with you about various options you
could use to keep the canopy top open.

Susan, there is a lift hinge type of thingy you can buy to keep toy
chest tops open, it's standard hardware.

  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.

   

  Susan
