									| We all have at least one. They are our personal "holy grails" of lighting collecting; those items we aspire to add to our collections before we ourselves go EOL. Here are mine, in no particular order:
 F90T17 fixture
 F40T17IS fixture
 F24T12 Slimline fixture
 F36T12 Slimline fixture
 Twin 400 MV fixture (one that uses the tulamp MV ballast)
 1000 watt high bay MV fixture (a real vintage one, not a converted MH unit)
 180 watt LPS (Sox) fixture
 VHO outdoor "gasoline station" fixture
 A fixture to run the legendary 3Ft T17 lamp, along with a few lamps for it... (yes, I am dreaming here)
 
 What's on your lighting "bucket list"?

									| A bunch of preheat halfpipes with Daylight Deluxe or White Deluxe. I want my future workshop for vacuum cleaners and vintage electronics and what not to be completely lit by F40's and F96 Slimlines. A big mercury vapor 399< watts cobrahead outside my house. I want a big sign that says "If you come here with the intention of updating my lighting then get your --- off my property." I hope I used that numerical symbol correctly, I mean 400 watts or greater.   |  |

									| I forgot all about the floor lamps!! I'd love to have at least one, preferably the 2x14 variety instead of the circline, but I'd be happy with either. Also, might as well add a Dazor floating arm lamp, the kind with 2 F15T8s. |  |
