i've got a 4x54w T5 light fixture with one cord and one switch but what i'd really like is to be able to have 2 cords and 2 switches. so i was wondering if anyone out there would be able to and interested in doing this job for me...

please let me know if you can help me out.
thanks,
darryl

ps or if anyone can point me towards a friend or recommendation to someone who does small jobs that would be great as well.

and if you have 2 ballasts

well with the help of parkinsn, and a quick look-see we've determined that it's a single 4 bulb ballast. so i'm thinking about grabbing a 2 bulb ballast and adding it. lighting 2 bulbs with the existing ballast and the other 2 with a new ballast. how's that sound?

Sounds possible but make sure that the 4 bulb fixture will fire 2 bulbs......their are alot of ballasts out their the require all bulbs before they fire!!!
