my ballast does that.. what kind u got?Check it out. We had bad wind storms about a month ago and our power kept flickering. Every time I would go check my lights to make sure nothing was fucked up. I have digital timers with battery backups so I wasn't too worried about the timers. Every time I went down the lights would be off right after the power flickered. I waited a few minutes because I know it can take a while for the bulb to kick back on. After about 15 min. still no light. I could hear the ballast humming so I unplugged it. Left it unplugged for about 10-20 minutes and then plugged it back in. The lights came back on. This happened 4-5 more times that day and every time I would have to go down and unplug and leave the ballast unplugged for 10-20 minutes. Each time I plugged it back in it would come right on. This may be what happened or the bulb is toast. How old is your ballast?
