I've seen this question asked before, but no real answer was given.
"Why do my fluorescent lights fail to illuminate when it is wet or foggy?
I have eight f96T12 two lamp fixtures under my vac island. When it is very humid or foggy they won't light. I called a guy at Lighbulb Depot and he said it is a common problem and recommended I change to F96T12 HO bulbs and ballasts. The bulb is $3.95 and the ballast is $37. I guess that isn't too bad. The bulb is the same price as a standard bulb, but the ballast is about $12 higher.
Anybody done this changeout and had success with it?
thanks,
David
