No mate, 250w Mercury ( this was taken about 2 min into warming up )

Bring back Fluorescent and SOX Streetlights. Keep magnetic ballasts.

Will, that looks amazing. But please don't let it run like that. It will just take seconds for the bowl to melt in such burning position. U might have already thought about that but I suffered a lot from this position of burning. Very minor melts but the look of the bowl becomes ugly (even with a small melt)

Yeah, I made sure it wasn't on long, just a 5 min test. Im thinking of a way to put it up on a removable bracket, I'll store it away when not being used

I wouldn't expect it to damage the cover! I ran mine like this albeit with the cover off to test it so I suppose I was fortunate! Although mine's 80W

Say NO to DICTATORSHIP in the form of bulb/tube/ballast bans !!

The ageing of the bowl is the fact, They become more brittle as they age....
