3 things today:
* Put up some Christmas lights.
* Re-installed a 1xF32 fluorescent on the house (had taken it down for painting)
* Converted a 2xF96 strip to LED (I'm quite impressed. nice upgrade.)

Today I went through a couple boxes of T12 fluorescent lamps and brought a few EOL ones out for disposal. The rest will be used for the rapid start T12 fixtures in my garage, since they’re just common Phillips Altos.

I also saw some more F32T8 fixtures at my school being retrofitted with LED.

I’ve always been interested in all kinds of lighting, mainly incandescent and HID, and especially all kinds of sodium lamps (HPS/LPS). I’ll tolerate LED but I’m not a fan of it.
I’m not proud to say that my city has Devolved to LED.

Got a pretty decent score from my local Restore yesterday, mainly consisting of slightly older Incandescent, fluorescent, and a few LEDs with big heatsinks.

If it's the same one as we have, it's a lovely lamp. I have always been impressed with the build quality from Iwasaki  :hps:

Mind posting the photos? :wndr: :D

It took me ~3 weeks to finish cataloging my 362 or so light bulbs, not sure how many you have so results may vary. :mrg: :lol:
