What is this part of a fluorescent light? Img_2012

One side of this light is out and it's missing this part. Kinda looks like it's on the ballast? I don't want to pull this one out because I don't know if it comes out.

Help and thanks!

That's the part you stick your tongue on to see if it still has a metallic taste. If it does, it's still working.

Starter. You can buy them for like a quarter or so and replace them yourself.

That keeps the unit water tight. You can plug it into a wall in your bathroom, set it on the edge of your tub, and have a great reading light.
Just be sure to test it first by tossing it into the water with you. If the light fails, I recommend sending a strongly-worded email of complaint to the manufacturer.

It's part of a fluorescent bulb. There is no fluorescent light. Light is light. And you never see it, you merely see the things it illuminates.

Be careful. Break that bulb and you'll have to call in a hazmat!
