Review: It works, done right! - Need to pull hard on wires to remove non working starter. Use pliers, then insert new starter wires until they “bottom out”. Replacement starter worked perfectly after installation.
Review: did the trick - My flowtron zapper died after about 1 year. I got a new bulb, it wasn't the bulb. It was this do-hicky. Easy to remove and replace. Took a few minutes to swap, now works as it should again. The old one was visibly blackened. The replacement looks much beefier, the old one looked flimsy. I should have bought 2. M
