Downsizing - Canadian LPS and MV Fixtures up for Trades! « on: October 06, 2022, 08:38:31 PM » Author: ElectroLite
Hey everyone,

I'm at the unfortunate point where I have to narrow down my collection as I'm running out of space and want to get rid of things I know I won't use. I also might be on the move over the next few years for work, so the things I have in storage need to be worth it for me.

Below is a list of things that will eventually need to go. Used lamp included with ALL fixtures below, and all are pre-wired up for plug & play operation. Mounting arm is NOT included with any fixture. Pictures are available by clicking on the highlighted link, more can be provided upon request. (Need to go through them all yet!) Located in Canada, and all fixtures are already packaged up and able to be sent immediately.


Low Pressure Sodium:

Philips Goldfinger II | 55w SOX - Remade back reflector plate, original was missing
Philips SOX-NEMA | 35w SOX
Thorn Alpha 4 | 135w SOX - Electronic Ballast
1980s Philips MA90 Remote Gear | 90w SOX - Remote magnetic ballast box included, 2 small bullet holes in bowl
Lustra MINI-SOX | 18w SOX-E w/ original box & instruction sheet. Electronic Ballast
Philips BSX 66 Ballast Kits | 66w SOX-E 240v w/ SX70 Ignitor - 2 available

[TRADE ONLY] 6 NEW Philips 35w Low Pressure Sodium lamps (My current entire stock of 35s - I'm selling off my remaining 35w fixtures and don't plan on getting any more) - TRADE for 6 NEW 55w LPS Lamps


Mercury Vapor:

1970s American Electric Closed Bottom Glass NEMA | 250w MV
Powerlite B2227 | 175w MV
Sylvania Bracket Fixture S5-400B | 400w MV
Line Materials Night Sentry / Dusk to Dawner | 175w MV
Westinghouse OV-12 | 250w MV 240v
Powerlite Private-Eye | 250w MV
Sylvania R37 | Stock 175w MV
Westinghouse Canada Viscount | 175w MV - Small crack/punctures in one refractor section

[TRADE ONLY] Powerlite Mini-Clamshells - Trade one for Gumball or other Clamshell?


High Pressure Sodium:

Sylvania R47 | 100w HPS
Crouse Hinds Canada OV-15 | 100w HPS


I would be most interested in TRADES for NEW 55w SOX lamps, or other SOX fixtures (preferably Canadian, but I'm also looking for British MA50/MA90/MA60 fixtures and bowls).
(Also putting this out there: I would trade SEVERAL things on this list for a T&B 180w SRP if anyone has one and wants to part with it! I am primarily looking for the bowl though, so if anyone has a spare LONG SRM/SRP Bowl, I'd be very interested.)

Other trades for mercury lamps / fixtures might also be considered, so please let me know what you have! I am primarily focusing on LPS stuff right now though, and the LPS fixtures above will ONLY be traded for OTHER LPS things.

Otherwise for anyone wanting to purchase anything listed, all of this stuff will end up on eBay eventually once I figure out pricing, write up the listings, and after I get any potential trades out of the way. I would much rather trade these lights with a fellow collector rather than sell them to the common eBay folk and get hammered with eBay fees. I will update this post once things are for sale, and all items for sale will be designated as such.

I should also mention that if you have an idea for a trade but aren’t exactly ready to pursue it yet, please send me a PM right away and discuss it with me. If we work something out, I'll hold the light(s) for you.

Thanks for looking everyone and please PM me if you are interested in anything! :)

Items traded with other members (Image links for reference):

Norelco SOX-Pak | 35w LPS

-------------------------

(Just for reference: Several links from above have disappeared as I have changed my mind on a few things. EVERYTHING listed above is still available for trades. However that first Goldfinger II and the 90s MA90 are gone as I have reconsidered my decision to sell them.)

Wow, unfortunately we're not in the position of being able to help, although that 35W SOX NEMA looks nice. Shipping would be the killer to here as well  :-\

Hopefully you'll manage to sell/trade them, although it's a pity you have to  :sadbulb:

Free shipping on Tuesday is back for this October on CanadaPost.ca. 5 kilos max to Canada or 2 kilos to the USA.

I'm interested in anything & everything that is 5 kilos max! I'm sure that the 66w SOX-E kits, Norelco Soxpack without ballast(?) should be under 5kilos.

That Alpha 4, the OV12, or Dusk to Dawner isn't too bad.
