That does seem odd. I had the same thing happen on one of my ballasts the other week. I turned it on and off repeatedly with no firing of the bulb. I then turned it off for about a minute and back on and it worked. It worked fine for a few days then did the same thing. I haven't had a problem with it ever since but am not sure whether its the ballast (dual PFO), or the bulb as the bulbs are only a couple months old.
