I got some made in China CFL fixtures and bulbs from an online source and some of them take nearly 30 seconds to come on. I don't mean a low glow then warm up to full brightness I mean not even a flicker for 30 seconds. The fixtures only have a small transformer and the bulbs are single tube bi-pin, 13 watt. Can I add anything like a capacitor to help them start faster?
