Sorry, but statements like that **** me off to no end. Engineers tick me off too.....

My apologies bandit - I didn't mean to offend anyone with that statement. I have edited it to better communicate what i meant. I felt the question was "generally" better suited for an engineer for we were looking for a technical explanation as to how bulb length/# of bulbs relate to the to the overall stated output of the unit. I figured the question was more of a ballast design/circuitry question than a wiring question. I assume you have read the entire thread so you can see what I was trying to get at. I in no way meant to imply that electricians weren't as knowledgeable - both fields have their specific skills/specializations.
Please feel free to weigh in on what I attempted to explain for I am neither an engineer or electrician but a "web researcher/diy'er"
