Hi,
I have al faulty "Electronic Ballast". It came out of a light fixture. It didn't "die", but the light was unstable flickering and not bright (i.e. purple-ish). I replaced this one with a new one and all works well. Leaves me a broken one on the desk
I was thinking this might be a good project to repair myself! Only, after taking a hit (220V going through both arms, when I was young) playing with a starter, I learned a important lesson. So nowadays im (trying to be) carefull with all AC voltages, it has my full respect! :-) Happy to be still here (ya-da-ya-da
)
My question: should I even try and where do I start? I'm tempted! But maybe its out of my league
Obvioulsy I looked for the dead-give-away's like smell, blown caps, etc. As you can see on the picture (well, at least to my untrained eyes!) it looks all pretty normal.
To the pro's, do I give it a try, or do I go on a salvage parts quest?
Thanks a bunch,
Roger
