TAB,

What's a "Troffer"??

It's the rectangular (some are square) light fixture that usually goes with a drop-ceiling.




TAB, thanks for the heads-up on the retro lights. My church needs to replace a bunch of fluorescent  lights in one of our large gathering rooms with high ceilings. Those you posted would work just right.

From Wikipedia - "A troffer is a rectangular light fixture that fits into a modular dropped ceiling grid (i.e. 2' by 2' or 2' by 4'). Troffer fixtures have typically been designed to accommodate standard fluorescent lamps (T12, T8, or T5), but are now often designed with integral LED sources. Troffers are typically recessed sitting above the ceiling grid, but are also available in surface mount 'boxes'." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troffer

Edit: I didn't realize there was another page here until I posted this but there is a little more information at the link.

Got it...thanks, TAB!!!

These lights have evolved a long way.
I changed so many 8' fluorescent bulbs and 277v ballasts (tapped off a 480v circuit) that I could do it in my sleep.

come on billt. You are not even trying...


You should have said.


The light above my reloading station needs to be replaced with something stronger.  These old eyes can't see too reload 32 acp any more.

That way wr can branch off into at least 5 other paths.

.32 a.c.p.??? who in the world would load an overpowered round like that? A .25a.c.p. is more than powerful enough to get the job done...Nobody needs a .32a.c.p.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
