Light fixture flickering after Hurricane Dolly power outage

Hi Giancarlo,
I do appreciate your patience and helpfulness with this. I think the hurricane put me on edge more than I realized, since I didn’t first think of checking the bulb/tube. A few minutes ago ago, I switched the tube out with a known good one from another fixture. It worked fine! Now I have […]

Dirt for planting pond plants - but wait - there’s more…..
