[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 583256, member: 16749"] Not an issue with modern electronic ballasts. Using the old magnetic ballasts, fluorescent lights would flicker at twice the frequency of the AC that was powering them. Modern electronic ballasts run the lights at thousands of Hertz, typically 20,000 Hz for T8/T12 type lamps. This exceeds the persistence of the phosphors and other parts of the process, so the result is a steady, non-strobing light [/QUOTE]
