Boohoo. I can't believe I have to come on here and ask for help.

I'm trying to connect some osram biaxial 4 pin fluroscents with a dimmer switch.

I have all the components but just don't understand what the hell is going on with them. Never known so many connections for two bulbs. Shit - my matcho mojo is damaged.

This is the switch:

These are the two lamp holders. A pin goes in each hole: [img] [/img]

Here is the ballast. I know there is a wiring diagram on there which I can't make sense of. Yes I am an idiot.

How on earth do I wire it all up

Yes. It is a dimmable ballast and the correct switch before we get into that.
