Weak lamps will sometimes fail to start, flicker, dim. Black ends are generally a sign they are about done. Different styles have different symptoms, but all are affected by cold weather, damp conditions, low voltage, and weak ballasts.
The old style T12 and T8 flourescents are on the way out. My opinion, the replacement lamps and ballasts are of poor quality. Couple of reasons, the mfgs don't want to maintain the old equipment that makes them, and they want to cut every corner they can to reduce costs, and they want to discourage people like us from babying them along for the next 20 yeas!
