[QUOTE="NugentS, post: 524953, member: 34703"] Hi, I had a twin flourescent tube setup in my home office - I replaced the tubes with LED tubes and obviously also replaced the starters with whatever the LED's require. However these are now flickering (I don't think they did initially). Both tubes are flickering. Some google says that the "starters" may be the issue. That flickering is often the result of cheap "starters". Assuming that what I am saying makes sense, can anyone point me to good starters that I could try swapping out? I am assuming at this point that these things are generic and easily replaceable. Further googling says I may have got the wrong end of the stick here. May have to replace the switch - which is a smart switch, buty not a dimmer switch [/QUOTE]
