If one wanted to drive several CCF lamps from line voltage, from what I've
been able to gather, all that would be needed would be a HV transformer
(CCFL's run on 800-plus volts?), a ballast cap, and a series resistor.
Of course, if some means to dim a lamp were desired, additional circuitry
would be needed.
If anyone knows of a tutorial or application information for CCFL's, I'd be
pointed in their direction.
Thanks,
