How HOT Did this Thing GET?!
|
Wow! This fixture got hot enough to stain the white paint on this fixture! O_O Pretty damn hot! The ballast sprayed tar all over the insides of the fixture almost like it exploded. It leaked PCBs too since the tar was thin and watery. I wore rubber gloves when handling this fixture and it's at the curb. Not even gonna try to salvage this thing.

Vince made a good point about this specificaly saying FOR INDUSTRIAL USE ONLY. That was likely put on there because it lacked protected which made it unsafe for residential or even commercial applications. Although I'm not sure that protection was around for any ballasts back then anyways.
