วีดีโอ

Thank you so much for this little video you did two years ago cause it saved me. My sister picked one up at Goodwill and wasn’t sure how the darn thing worked and then you explained it so I’m happy. I know the two years old, but you never know who’s going to find it so thanks again.

Thanks so much for this video! My light tracer fell and the switch was pushed inside the unit. I could not figure out how to take it apart and move the switch back to the outside. Thankfully it was not broken other than the switch being pushed into the unit and it's working fine.

This fixture is actually made by Caster. Uses a polar lights lamp and probably a caster ballast. It’s made by Caster but it’s branded Lithonia Lighting. Most residential HID light fixtures are made by Caster Lighting, which is the reason why they come with Polar Lights lamps.

I have the exact same light and it is also very hard to close. I do believe it has to do with battery size. I've noticed some batteries are easier to close and some batteries. It's harder to close mainly rechargeable, but some of the lithium rechargeable battery is not so difficult

I have a request, a 4 pin PL-T fluorescent lamp on a preheat or rapid start ballast

hope you feel better

I have those candles, CFL lightbulbs, but it’s a spiral and it’s daylight 14w and it’s 60w

Do the original general electrics work with the preheat ballasts?

How do you remove the light bulb?

The GE Reveal CFLs seem rare, I usually only see them in soft white or daylight. I did find a reveal one today tho. It had a pink hue to it. I probably saw 2700K or 6500K GE HELICAL CFLs, they also made uncommon versions like 4100K or Reveal.

Not grounded properly

hello, we do want to collab with you. But i can find no contact info on your profile.

I have lots of LEDs in my apartment, I have Great Value 5000K LED light bulbs 60W equivalent, I actually like LEDs. I only have 2 incandescents left, rest are LEDs.

You can ruin electronic ballasts if you use starters with them.

"I've given her all she's got, captain! She can't take any more!" [A few minutes later...] "Oh no she won't hold! She's breaking up! 😳"

Wow, plenty of incandescent bulbs

You can kind of preheat them

Your ballast "instant" start ? This FPL fluorescent have 24k hours very long time, so good. I'm in Taiwan buy Philips FPL 36W just 8k hours life~

I have the same one!

EPIC!

😊😊😊 3:12 😊😊😊😊 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉 🎉🎉🎉🎉😢😢😢❤❤

A few years ago I bought 2 of these lights for like 16 bucks a piece on amazon, I wish I bought more now at that price lol

nice fixture but those starters are just asking to short out against the metal or shock someone.

They have a built in fuse they are made to be pointed at a 90° angle its actually not blown the fuze inside the bulb well trigger it as its a built in safety mechanism, wait at least 15min before you turn it on again.. turning it upside down or on an angel well trip the bulb lol

Wow that is awesome! I love fluorescent lights

I absolutely LOVE the 36" Hunter Original! Back when we had Sizzler Steakhouse in the Midwest, the one in my neighborhood had four 52" Originals with the same brass/brown motor housing, but they had Reverse-Air blade brackets, and were always set to "updraft," even in summer, as they still circulated the cool air without too much breeze.

This is a really cool fixture, i plan on doing some like this

This fixture is actually cooper lighting metalux

Cool little flaslight

The black shiny substance at the bottom of the bulb is a getter that absorbs any imperfections in the vacuum. Getters are usually made out of barium. Also, I believe that black foam piece is a gasket for when you are mounting it to an electrical box. It helps prevent moisture from getting in to your box.

GE's "Edison" range was their range of halogen light bulbs that used standard linear halogen capsules like ones you would find in a motion activated security light or work light.

LOVE those R&M originals ! Also how do you join the discord server ?

What is the catalog number for that Robertson ballast?

Nice !

Nice little fixture !

Bassence better

we have this type of light but the regular orange flashing light on vehicles

That is a lot of nice old lights fans and lamps!

Ugh. Too many LEDs for my tastes!

The sound of the starter

You should try popping some mains voltage 120v bulbs on a variac or 240v.

I’ve replicated the ms104 fixture with thin gauge sheet metal and a homemade metal brake. I used a Robertson l48 ballast which overdrives the bulb but mounts perfect with the mounting bolts for the lamp holders

Can i get a uhhh motherfuckin Cheeseburger with a side of RAM 3500 Laramie Crew Cab

i love this tipe of vidios, so interesting and fun to watch, keep it going

New subscriber! Great vid!

What the hack

Lol what an interesting idea to do a video on. Digging it.

Never knew these existed! Would have deserved more popularity, as slow warmup was major shortcoming with CFLs. But, now it is time for leds to shine and let that be a nice novelty piece of vintage.

When you make the next one, you should make it 3x PL-S 5w.
