: Subject: differences btw time needed to fire up MHs?
:
: When power is supplied to the ballasts, one usually fires within 30
: seconds or so. But then there is almost always a delay that can
: stretch up to several minutes before the other one fires!

I have seen the same phenomenon in my dual PFO, CSL and DIY
ballasts. I think that one bulb may be pulling more juice at fire up
and until it comes up to even power it is leaving the other to wait.
That's my story and I am sticking to it!
