i am allowed one dumb question per day.
this is it:
can you refit t8 strip fixtures to use t5 lamps without changing ballasts
and tombstones? someone is telling one of my clients that you can use
t5 "adapters" to use t5 lamps in a t8 fixture.
i'm googling it, and my b.s. filter is starting to clog up....
has anyone done this?
and if it is doable, is it worth doing, given the small advantage between
t5 and t8, which seems to be about 10% depending on who you talk to.
thanks, guys.... the company who is advocating doing this, is in
florida, and i'm wondering if it's a "other side of the country" thing
that i've not seen on the left coast....
