i found this fixture in an old barn about a year ago, it is preheat and runs 2 f40t12 bulbs, i have been using it every day (about 7 hours a day) for a year and took it apart today to fix the tombstone, the ballast does not buzz too muchand does not appear to be leaking a lot of tar, there is a tiny bit around the wire hole, but i have seen worse. the ballast was pretty hot it was too hot in one place to touch. it does not seem to have any issues though. i am running 2 altos (i know they are crap but it was all i could dig up at the time) do they make it run hot?.
anyway, the sticker on the ballast is gone, but it has a stamp that just says "32" i don't think it is that old, i dont even know if they had them then. there are 2 stickers on the fixture that have the number 48 on them, could that be a date? is anyone familiar with Abrams lighting? i cant find anything under them so i am assuming this is a small company.
