A reflector in poor condition with a badly wired HF ballast & T8 tube bodged in. £185 please! Oh and you have to go and collect it yourself.
No thanks!

I saw this months ago, I just can't believe he hasn't sold it yet lol. If anyone actually pays £185 for that they want sectioning.
Also whoever, ahem, "rewired" that is not an electrician! Obviously doesn't even know how to remove the cable from the terminal on the ballast and all wires basic/single insulation? Looks like a death trap

Yes, definitely not the work of a qualified electrician. It's not even as though it's been done well. I would have at least put the ballast on top in a metal box and used the right size tube clips if I was doing that.
