Volt for caravan. Check went in clearence section in
Home depot and saw a pile of 14w-20w chokes

What's the highest wattage that switch-start is useable for on 120v?
Funkybulb   [15 Feb, 2017 at 05:16 PM]
Kev no I did not get these as thesw are bit crap underpowering tubes. Not buying those for nearly 7 bucks a pop.

Frontsidebus for fluorescent choke it would be F25T12 choke on 120 volt
But there also autotransformer switch start ballast for 30, 40 watt T12 and 90 watt T17 5 foot tube.

Longest tube on leading cap circuit manual switch start ive done is 40 watt tube on 120 volt using a 20 watt choke.
