(I know this is the T8 fixture forum but I couldn’t find a T5 light forum)
So, I have gone through 3 T5 fluorescent light tubes in the last week. [br]
When I install them, they are lovely and bright for about 48 hours.
Then I turn them on, it’s a very dim, drab pink and the ends are black. [br]
[br]
It is my understanding that this is the mercury escaping and that replacing the bulb should resolve the issue but it just keeps recurring. [br]
Do I have the wrong bulb? Is it a wiring issue? [br]
Any and all info would be greatly appreciated!
