Me too. That is why I asked if it is possible to keep the ballast but get rid of the starter, since it influences the convergence in tate mode on a NNC.I'm not that keen on removing the ballast as I like to keep things as oem as possible & would have to cut wires ect.
That's interesting, I can't say I've run into that issue, though I did convergence on the monitor with fully working lighting at the time.Me too. That is why I asked if it is possible to keep the ballast but get rid of the starter, since it influences the convergence in tate mode on a NNC.
Did you ever find a solution? It seems impossible to find something here in europe that would just work by plug and playThanks! So just to be sure. I did not modify anything yet and would like to be able to insert the bulb only plug and play.
Can I use this bulb and just take off the starter?

Thank you guys!
Not an option for me unfortunately. Missing the light starter is there maybe it would still work but no idea. And no one ships these lights to Germany. And finding an led that would work with 110v seems also impossible. The information on this topic is mainly useless because i cant get the partsI think I imported something but never continued the work. Somehow the flickering got better...

I don't know why I said ballast I actually meant I couldn't see a starter so I guess they don't have them on the Noir units so can I just drop in a LED tube without worrying about flicker?Yes, I have LED tubes in my Noirs as well. I actually converted my old Noirs to 230V completely:

I definitely had ballasts in my cabs. IIRC they were electronic ones without starters.

Btw what is the 3.3v PSU used for ?
