[Spridgets] NO LBC - Fluorescent Lights

[Michael Rowe]

I tried to replace/repair one of my fluorescent shop lights yesterday and 
was told at Home Cheapo that, in two years, the standard T12 bulbs will no 
longer be made.  They will be replaced by the more efficient T8 bulbs, which 
may not fit/work in the older fixtures.  So either we should stock up on T12 
bulbs or switch to T8 fixtures if replacing the entire unit.  She sold me 
new T12 end fittings which, naturally, do not fit my 25-year-old box.
