Here's an interesting link where you might be able to find some better answers: The Professor's PSMH
Not real sure. Two days in a row, it took forever to ignite. But am pretty sure it stayed on, once it got going. Third day, I switched it for the floro's. No hurry figuring it out. Can't afford to do much of anything right now.
Will check the link tho, thanks bunches.

Good luck to you too, keeko, thanks.
