ABSTRACT:
A fluorescent light fixture has a fluorescent light starter assembly secured within a vented housing. The housing has a base with an electrical connector which feeds the external power to the fluorescent light starter assembly. The base of the housing is secured to a tubular adaptor. The other end of the adaptor is secured to the lamp post. Power is provided to the fluorescent light by an external power supply wire which typically runs from a wall outlet, through the center of the lamp post and the adapter, and to the base of the housing where it is secured to the electrical connectors which provide power to the fluorescent light starter assembly. The adaptor may include a switch for manually turning on and off the fluorescent light starter assembly. The switch is electrically connected to the external power supply wire and the electrical connectors at the base of the housing.
