Also need to cut some of the plastic lens covers down to size to replace a bunch of broken ones.  Doing that this week.

 Last night anyways . I replaced the failed 250w R-40 heat lamp in my little "Water Room" as I noticed it was 46°f in there one my way out for dinner. The thermostat doesn't let it get below 55°f . I got 2 years out of the previous lamp which was made by Xtra Life .

Sometimes it just takes time and concerted effort to learn something new. Don't give up before you get there.

Took out a GE MVR150/U/MED metal halide bulb that went kablooey inside.  either at EOL or due to some other failure.  The tube wasn't very black..  Put in a LU150/med temporarily until new MH bulb arrives.
