8.7 volts incoming (MAYBE RESOLVED)
I came up with an unusual problem this morning. I've got 3 of the 2 light 12 volt fluorescent fixtures above my gally. Two of the three are burning, one is not (very dim). I'm thinking the ballast is bad in the one light that won't work. I did buy new bulbs and it did not correct the problem. The lights are F15T8. I opened them up and was thinking about putting led's in place of the fluorescent lights. I measured the voltage at the input line and am getting 8.7 volts at each of the 3 fixtures.
Is that right or if not, what would cause it? I thought there would be 12 volts at the input line. The batteries are fully charged, I am plugged in charging and I've checked voltage at other 12 volt outlets and am getting full power through them.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
