<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">ya thats what I am guessing but I am not sure.. could be a reference to what the site says..

anyways run two in series with two wires and then use the other two wire for the other one.. I think that is how Bruce has his set up Adam.

Hi,

In theory...you can run all four wires (shorted together) on to three tubes in parallel. I am not sure what the lighting output would be and you might be stressing the lamps if you only have 1 lamp (out of the 3) working. Stressing means driving VHO levels in to NOs.

The wiring diagram I have seen for this on the fulham website only shows 3 of the 4 red wires being used.. Is there a way I can wire the bulbs in and add in the 4th wire for a little more light? Or will it not be much different anyways?

Here's what I found:

Steve is correct, I have 3 x 3' with 2 in series with 2 wires and 1 with 2 wires alone.
