I'm looking for an old thread where someone here explained the process of modifying a florescent light fixture to make it put out twice as much light. It had something to do with the wiring. It was a safe process and they explained how to do it. I would appreciate any help at all in trying to find this. I've looked but no luck.

Elsie,
Thanks for the thread but that's not it. The one I'm thinking about dealt more with converting a dual ballast fixture and switching everything over to only use one ballast or something to that effect. The person explaining it made it sound like a cake walk. I really wish I had saved that thread. Any other guesses? Thanks again elsie.

Notmartha,
That seems to deal more with the regular lighting rather than florescent. Thanks for your guess though.

I think this might be it - look for Maineman's Jan. 25 post: http://davesgarden.com/t/406582/

You're welcome. But now I AM wondering just what winter you might be referring to? Navarre is in the FL pandhandle right near PC and Destin, yes? WINTER? WHAT winter? You mean that nano-second cool breeze that happens every third year, sometime in late January? (hehehehehehe ;o)

Terry,
I'm new here. I moved here a year a go and hope that every year the winter will be as mild as this last one. I keep getting different info from the locals though so I'm preparing for the worst. I hope it's just as you say it will be. I think I'm going to just use the sunroom for the plants if I have to bring anything in. I just need to supplement the lighting. It's double pane glass and it really blocks out the light.
