If i bought 2 100mm CCFLs and splices them in series would i be able to run them off one inverter or would i have to run them in parallel? I understand electronise fine but i just figured if one inverter can run a 300mm CCFL why cant it run two 100mm ones in series.

The inverter is not powerful enought to run two. Also for some reason when ever i have spliced the wires from the tube to the inverter it has always dimmed even with only one light.

what if i build my own inverter. would that work? If it is dimmer when just spliceing i would try soldering the joint.
