Can you connect two cold cathode tubes to one rocker switch?

[JackBurton]

I want to use one rocker switch to turn on or off both cathode tubes. Will that be ok? I'll have to make some adjustments because each cathode tube comes with its own swicth.

It will be fine as long as the switch is before the cold cathod power invertors.

Yep. That should be fine

I think it is. Here is what I'm getting. I think the inverter is shrink wrapped in black?

yeah, that's it

not that you'd ever tap into a wire on that side anyway.

just stick with the wires going to the toggle switch that come with it, and you'll be fine
