Today, I was going to get just some ignitor and starters, found out that the Shopkeeper was well versed in lighting and got all of these. My first T10, aquarium lamp, BLB MV, 840 tube and more. @Ria The 400w red MH is like maroon.

Just received my FT36 DULUX fluorescent tube... one of them. I ordered two. Seller goofed. Circling around the seller until I get my second fluorescent tube. Refund threat activated.

I received a refund on my order regarding the missing lamp, and put my 36w Sylvania to use. It's nice and bright, but the hertz flicker is a bit stronger with that lamp. This is a HPF magnetic R.S ballast for two PL-L 40w lamps... the hertz flicker is exactly like that of most F40T12 HPF R.S magnetic ballasts. With the Sylvania Eco Dulux 36w lamp in series with one Philips PL-L 36w lamp, the hertz flicker looks almost the same as if I were to install a 34w lamp in series with a 40w lamp. It's tough to explain.

After weeks of being somewhat inactive, I made a deal with Francis and today met with member fluorescent lover 40 to pick up more SOX luminaries along with an uncommon M-400A variant. I have tons of stuff to share, but interest here isn’t high enough to really post them unfortunately. But that’s what I’ve been up to.

Not done it as yet, but we're hoping to get to Westminster and take some piccies of the gassy lampses.

I know . I just can understand better why other members both past and current got irratated by it .  Today I bought another 50w CMH postline ballast from eBay . I seem to occasionally find them REALLY cheap !

What is the ordering code for them? I wasn’t even aware they made ceramic metal halide specific ones.
