I'll start it off. If I could back in time I'd go back to the 50s or 60s and buy a case of Ken Rad f96 bulbs or some tulamp ballasts.

Probably a 1940's preheat fluorescent halfpipe light, Some old area / street lights and of course old fluorescent tubes. (Probably coloured)

I love bulbs of all types.
|
I would go back and get some of those lights that has those heaters to heat a filament and then when it gets hot enough the filament lights, because there are so few of them. It predates fluorescent, I forget the name. I'd also get those old incandescent bulbs that were to compete with Edison and was supposed to last forever. Then perhaps those old GE troffers that lit themselves, if I can go to multiple times.

I like my lamps thick, my ballasts heavy, and my fixtures tough.

A selection of group replacement street lighting lamps (at least a few of every power rating and a few cases of 32W, 58W and 189W lamps) and some high quality pre Chicom plague CFLs. And a few LPS bucket lights and multiple lamp barn lights for good measure.

I'd also get circularc fixtures and tubes. I'd also go and get some of the very first Mazda fluoro tubes in existence-with original sleeves.

I'd get some more ITT mercs since I've heard that they are rare.

I would definitely try and get my hands on a MAT lamp, as these are as rare as rocking horse poo. Also given the demise of the factory at Hamilton, build up a stock of SOX lamps of all wattages.
