I am replacing t12 lamp bulbs with LED tubes. The LED tubes are the type that bypass the ballast and wire directly into the mounting lug at one end of the tube.
I have four 2 tube Fluorescent fixtures that I am using for the LED conversion. What I want to do is switch on one tube of each fixture with the action of a standard wall switch. Then if more light is required, I would like to flip the switch back to off and then on quickly and energize the second row of lamp tubes and have the first row also be energized. I am thinking a time delay relay could do the trick, but have not attempted to wire it yet. Any thoughts or ideas would be helpful. Of course, the entire circuit would go off when the switch is opened and the circuit would reset to only the first row coming on the next time light is needed.
Thanks so much,
