[Elecraft] CCFL and Ballast

[Henk Remijn PA5KT]

Interesting to see the calculations. I pay around € 0.22/kWh. Purchase 
prices are about the same as in the USA.
Dont know what other prices are in EU, but for us it is more interesting 
to not use the old light bulbs.
In some countries it is forbidden to sell the old light bulb.
