Today, the 135 watt and 180 watt LPS bulbs arrived.

I have yet to buy two 90 watt bulbs for the planned acquisition of two Philips MA90s (one with the grey gear shoe, and another with internal gear).

I may buy another 135 watt LPS bulb if I can get a REVO Hyperion A.

Yeah the past week was quite hot here. Almost hit 90°F. 75°F sounds like great compared to that.

Yeah, thought it was about time I did it..! We do have the original wrappers but they are in very poor condition so I've made new ones and we'll preserve as much as we can of the old ones.

I recently restored a snowball light which fell over due to the pole rusting.
I also cashed in my scrap metal for a record payout and am going to be doing an assortment of lighting related stuff over the next little while.
