Can't shoot them? Right....
No, no. Of COURSE I'd never shoot them. That would be bad, wouldn't it? No. Not that.

And yes, the light SUCKS. I hate florescent lighting.
Fluorescence lighting perform poorly when you need to turn it on and off frequently, eg hallway lights, door lights etc. The ballast needs to charge and the starter takes some time to kick in. There are better versions, those cost $$$.

Those cost lights cost more and surprisingly a low energy sipper. Try LED torchlights. You will be surprised!
