An electronic starter for fluorescent lamp has a preheating circuit for controlling the preheating of the fluorescent tube and a power switch and locking circuit for cutting off the current to the preheating circuit. The power switch and locking circuit makes use of the voltage level on the power input to determine the status of the fluorescent tube. A high voltage on the power input represents that the fluorescent tube has failed to turn on in the ignition operation, whereby the power switch and locking circuit thereupon cuts off the current to the preheat circuit, thereby eliminating flickering of the fluorescent tube and so preventing irritation to the eyes, and extending the service life of the lamp.
