About ROBERTSON 3P20116 eBallast, Instant Start
Overall Feedback:
99% positive
97% appreciated the compatibility
The replacement went well and the Feit tubes work with the Robertson ballast.
The lights work perfectly with no interference and are cheaper than other options.
The ballast size is the same as the Home Depot fixture, so it fit perfectly.
I had to make modifications to mount the new T8 eballast to the fixture and modify the wiring per manufacture instructions. After that, the fluorescent light fixture worked perfectly well.
95% liked the smooth dimming capabilities, but 5% faced issues
I was able to eliminate the flicker by correctly installing the ballast.
With the fixture using a Robertson ballast, I have noticed one bulb with a delay, an audible buzz, and intermittent rapid dimming.
99% found it easy to install, but 1% encountered difficulties
I installed the ballast as a replacement in a 2 lamp fixture in my kitchen and it worked well.
The ballasts fit perfectly into the shop lamps and were easy to install, despite the wiring being different from the T12 lamps being replaced.
I attached the ballast to the fixture using pop rivets as it was a tight fit under the center cover.
To install the ballast, I had to cut the wires to the old ballast, remove it, and then connect the new ballast using 3 wire-nut connectors as per the diagram on the label.

The lights fired up perfectly with no interference. They are also cheaper than other options.
I am dissatisfied with the reliability of the ballasts. Either I am unlucky or the ballasts are unreliable/bad quality control.
