Thank you to everyone! Yes, this must be it!

​

One additional question; after looking some of these up it seems as though they make LED lights that will work with a CFL 4-pin (https://www.amazon.com/Bonlux-Rotatable-Fluorescent-Replacement-Horizontal/dp/B01JC4MS8G/). But often they include (as a feature?) not requiring a ballast, or they suggest 'bypassing' it altogether?

​

I think I understand that the ballast gives a strong initial voltage to start the arc, and then decreases appropriately over time? Does that sound right? So, if I understand correctly, LED lights clearly wouldn't need that extra bit of analog juice to start things up.

​

Question is: is the ballast in the bulb? Or the socket? Can I even 'bypass' it, as it hints at product description of the LED light? Or should I just keep it simple and get some of the normal twirly CFLs?
