A control and starting aid device for fluorescent tubes such as a gas discharge tube (1) powered by an electrical circuit via two electrodes (2, 3) each located at one end of the tube (1). The electrical circuit comprises a charged polymer part (4) provided adjacent to the tube (1) and used as ballast therefor, with starting aid and proper operation control functions for the tube (1). The device is particularly suitable as a fluorescent tube starting aid device. |
