Hi guys and girls if you look up rustymotor channel on YouTube he has some lighting videos including a blink happy Philips prismatic and a LP Sodium with built in starter plus a few others. Please go take a look. I'm sorry I don't know how to do a proper link let me know how you get on

Yes that's it thank-you for doing that

The "LiPo battery abuse" probably smelled wonderful...

In the days when me and another fellow repaired TV's we did the "water sausage" thing to the bad pix tubes rebuilders didn't want.Whats really weird-after the tube is filled-I mean really large color tubes-put them outside on a really cold night!!the water freezes-the glass falls away-the "ice CRT got a lot of laughs!"Oh the older days.Didn't have a camera that could film underwater at that time-just a big,bulky VHS one that you held over your shoulder.I still have that camera.Don't know if it still works.An antique at this point-seem lots of those at yard sales!

Quote from tolivac: "water sausage" thing to bad pic tubes". Could you explain please? I googled arounf and only got images of sausage machines.

That is what fellow I worked with called the act of filling the tube with water-Instead Google "filling CRTS with water" or something like that.Ddn't know anyone else did this-now I know.Its been a long time since then--almost 30Yrs!!!Now---no more CRT sets being made.That makes them vauleable to collectors.
