The Radio Shack strobe light with the modifications Jeff Parisse and Terry
Fritz worked out work GREAT.

Terry-Would you please add the link to the mods...  Thanks...

Lately there has been a lot of discussion about the trouble with using 
fluorescent bulbs for testing the synchronicity of motors. Some people have 
suggested using the small neon bulbs that can be powered of 110 volts. These

bulbs aren't particularly better because the y are so dim.  I brighter neon 
bulb would probably work much better. There are a lot of companies out there

that manufacture neon tubes and bulbs, and one of them is bound to 
manufacture a brighter neon bulb that doesn't need to be run off of an NST. 
If someone out there knows of where such a bulb could be found, I'm sure 
plenty of people would be eager to get one. It would probably make testing 
synchronous motors much easier for beginners.
