I noticed the flourescent tube bulb in my TWD backbox was burned out , so I ordered the same number bulb from Amazon (F18T8CW: Lowes and Home Depot didn't have it). The replacement blew, also. I swapped the flourescent starter and bulb from my MET into TWD, and it blew that bulb as well. Any suggestions of what to look at next?
Quoted from StylesBitchly:I would replace it with led board. Easy to make your own.
I have made my own led board for TSPP, with rgb behind the nuclear towers and white behind the characters. I think I have some strips left from the rolls. I'd like to make sure I get the flourescent problem fixed, then maybe I'll switch to an led board as a winter project.
Thanks for all the suggestions!
