[QUOTE="tigerrose01, post: 2631191, member: 16307"] I spent a good part of my life as an electronic tech and an equal part as an electronic engineer specializing in RF (radio frequency) design. The short answer is that florescent lighting does indeed affect most electronics by adding "noise" to the systems. The "noise" can be mostly eliminated by designing proper electronic filters for the equipment and having proper shielding for the internal circuitry. How well the circuit is designed will determine what the variation of measurement is. Distance from the florescent fixture is also a factor. The farther away, the smaller the "interference". Believe it or not , the transformers that operate florescent lights can also affect magnetic dampers for beam scales if they are too close. My recommendation is to use LED or other non-florescent lighting for a reloading bench. Also, do not route electrical lines, cables, etc... directly under your work surface. [/QUOTE]
