Rough service? Did they treat you horrible when you tried to order food? :mrg: :lol:

Are you going to run up that hps lamp on the merc ballast because it is a retrofit?

Rough service lamps are made for harsh conditions,where lamp shakes a lot or has too much vibrations.

@Bulbman256:
I got 4 of the clear/white wire ... everything the store had :) (actually that's all that was at any Target around me had .. this year Christmas stuff at all the stores here got pretty much cleaned out before Christmas. Guess it makes perfect sense with so many people working from home(thus decorating more) -and- the stores ordering less to begin with.)

-----------
Last light thing is now 2 sets of 100 Stay-Lit LED from Walmart yesterday.

Turns out I did end up getting another lamp prior to the end of the year, and it's a nice one. It's a 1000w clear GE mercury I got today.

I do prefer the real one too, but it is not as accessible as the faux one.  :P

I could probably modify a kerosene lamp decoration to make it a working one. Unfortunately mine ones are made of plastic
