Step 3Mount the ballasts
I salvaged these two ballasts from discarded fittings (ok skip diving!) but they saved me £20.
Each ballast is capable of driving up to 13 watts. We are going to use two 8 watt tubes so we need two ballasts (you may find one which drives both tubes but you will need to modify the wiring to accommodate this).
Leave enough room around your ballasts to get the wiring in. Your ballasts may have different mounting lugs but these had two which were offset in each corner. Mount using your M3 fixings.
