Day-Brite IS232 Industrial Strip Light - Lit Up

This is a 2010 Day-Brite IS series industrial-grade fluorescent strip light that I ordered on eBay, which I converted from F32T8 to F40T12. At the same time, I ordered a 1979 Universal Therm-O-Matic X 446-LR-TC-P rapid-start magnetic ballast, which I swapped in place of the original F32T8 instant-start electronic ballast. The conversion went very well, I could not be more pleased. I will be installing this fixture in the garage sooner or later. I look forward to seeing what the finished product looks like!

Here is the fixture turned on with a temporary power cord! Featuring two cool white GE Watt-Misers! The full-power Universal Therm-O-Matic ballast drives the lamps nice and bright and gives a great startup!
