A locking system for two linear fluorescent lamps comprises an endcap formed to receive two linear fluorescent lamps (Fig. 3). The endcap has two chambers formed by the outside surfaces of endcap and a central partition. Each of the chambers has a forwa rd portion and a rearward portion. The endcap has a height H equal to the diameter of the fluorescent lamps, a width W equal to twice the diameter of the fluorescent lamps and a length, f or example, 4 to 6 inches, that is substantially less than the length of the lamps, which can b e one to eight feet long. A stop is formed in each of the chambers at the forward portion to retain the lamps within the endcap. Each of the stops, in the form of a reverse corner, exten ds inwardly toward the center of the endcap and has a first panel with a first dimension equal to the height H and a second panel with a second dimension that is greater than one half of said height H but less than the height H.
