are you plugged into a GFI / GFCI? Local codes may be different between Portland and Long Beach when it comes to GFI - and items that run on a ballast (especially T5's in my case) will "flip" the GFI into it's protection mode.
Maybe the whole circuit box is GFI (that'd be weird - but who knows when it comes to new places).
