Apart from the fact that this is a ballest type light, and not one of the new ones that doesn't flicker, it's not a bad light, it looks quite compact, just how new is that lamp?
It is a few years old. Since it is in a south-facing room, the outside plastic of its casing has already started to yellow due to sunlight exposure. But you can still buy this same model of lamp brand new today.
They are probably running out of "gas"

Sounds like the preheat is a piece of crap or something. IDK I don't know much about flouresents.
Thier was this floresent light in my school that would blink like crazy. It was like a strobe light.

I have a desk lamp at work, about 3 years old. Same bulb and possibly same ballast. Does the same thing upon startup.
