In my own shop 2 years ago I had horrible problems with my t8 lamps and the radio. The root cause was from contacts getting loose after tons of hay was loaded on a common wall, at work I find overheated tombstones fall apart from one reason or another but a bad connection can be the root cause.+ | |
