does not switch light on until 10 mins after i press switch.

batten type light

possible remedy?

can i fit a new double batten light in place of a single batten light?

do you need to adjust any wiring?

thanks

New starter ?? Ballast playing up. It's a straight swap anyways

new tube & starter will prob fix it

Check voltage especially if it's an inductive ballast. If okay I would just replace tubes and starters. You can replace a single fluorescent with a double using the same supply, no extra wiring is needed, just install, connect and you're a for away.

and if you do change the fitting, SAFELY ISOLATE THE CIRCUIT!

Make sure it's the correct starter
