I've just bought a 2 foot LED fluorescent tube replacement (It comes with an "LED Starter") but only have a 4 foot fitting. By the looks of things it'd be very easy to shorten the fitting - take an end off and chop the steel to the new length.
But, there's an electronic ballast included in the fitting. Does anyone know if this differs depending on the length of the tube? Would I endanger my tube using the ballast from a longer tube fitting?
