ATTEMPTING TO REPAIR A BROKEN PL-S FLUORESCENT LAMP | WILL IT WORK?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 авг 2020
- In this video I attempt to repair a broken PL-S bulb that the electrodes do have continuity but the starter or condenser doesn't seem to work...
Will I accomplish fixing the bulb?
Hope you like the video!

I have done this many times glad to see other people doing it
Good job on the repair. Very cool seeing the inside and how it works. I remember replacing starters in the regular fluorescent fixtures, the round silver ones. Sometimes very difficult to snap in, but I got it in. 💡💡💡
Yes! I have regular linear fluorescents with a non-integrated starter.. (I think I will make a video about that probably next week)
Loved changing starters!
Did this recently with a 2D tube that was basically new but the starter had gone bad (completely open circuit), just gutted a cheap starter and split open the plastic housing of the 2D tube and replaced the starter and it worked a charm.
Nice Repair, the condenser/capacitor going bad in PL lamps seems to be a common problem, the starter can also fail by welding itself together mostly when the lamp is EOL. The cap thing used to be a big problem with US replaceable starters where some wax ones would combust in heavy use situations and where phased out for less flammable alternatives. As for the FS-2 not working, I'm thinking either your connections broke or that the starter was incompatible with PL lamps.
How does it happen on a pl bulb that wirks
I have a lot of pl lamps where the starter has lost its gas
Great fix 😁
Anche io ho un sacco di lampade esauste, sia cfl sia PL sia led.
Ho usato il circuito delle lampade cfl compatte per far accendere un tubo t8 da 20 w.
Thankyou very
nice
I guess the new starter didn't work because it needs higher voltage.
The capacitor isn't necessary, you may remove it completely. The starter will work anyway.
Yes! I was thinking just the same thing when I was editing the video...
That thing you say about the capacitor, well I have to try it out... As you see in the video at the end, the thing that was wrong in the Philips was the capacitor, and as soon as I placed it on the Tishman, it stopped working... But it would be nice seeing if removing it will make the Tishman work again... Thank you!
@@THEBULBHOME how does it happen on a working bulb
@@THEBULBHOME I’m surprised
Finally got to see the inside ...
You can just use non polarized capacitors to repair them
I have a heavily used pls bulb the starter died so I’m gonna do the same thing
Electrodes are glowing because you have short in built in capacitor. There should be two elements in integrated starter, one will be capacitor.
Yup, that's why I change it at the end! Thanks!
Nice, i once also repaired a PL Lamp where the Starter Bulb was actually broken into shards, i don't know how that happened.
Hi again!
Hello!
How much is the supply voltage: is it 220v AC or 89V DC ?
Hi, thank you for your video. I have a question to ask you. When you disassembled the Philips PL-S were the capacitor and starter fixed with glue or something else?. I ask this because I bought some Philips PL-S made in Poland and when I shake them I hear the internal components banging in the plastic socket. Thank you
Do you live in Mexico?
Yo también las reparo e reparado
ahorradores fluorescentes y
De LED
Incandescentes y aditivos metálicos como los de vapor de sodio etc
Cool!
Gracias
The capacitor has a short circuit. Only the capacitor was broken (capacitor=Condenser)
Yup, than's what I realized later! I'm gonna try and find a good capacitor so I can revive both bulbs!
I bet it doesn’t work because of the wrong starter and dodgy wiring and using bread ties as wires,that explains it not working, do it properly 🙄
