Certainly before the tube strikes.
Common failures tend to be :
- Tube current consumption increasing as it ages and reaching a point where it puts the inverter into protection. This often results in odd colour rendition though.
- Insulation breakdown near the tube, inverter or the cable that joins them. Puts the inverter into protection. Can be exacerbated by mechanical movement, vibration or even humidity.
- Inverter capacitors starting to dry out a bit and the increasing ESR results in a higher dissipation until the inverter goes into protection.
