Thanks GullWhiz I'm used to the other lights forum LOL & was trying to
do it as a 'text only' (non-clickable) link ... I went back & edited the comment Smile

It's alright...and that pic is really pleasing to the eyes!
xmaslightguy   [Jan 23, 2011 at 05:07 AM]

Very nice. Very Happy Add orange and you have the whole rainbow. Razz
xmaslightguy   [Oct 12, 2011 at 03:14 AM]
Once I get a couple of those orange lamps I'm deff gonna have to do some sorta 6-lamp thingie LOL even if its just a board with lamps on it
streetlight98   [Oct 12, 2011 at 03:18 AM]
That would be a site. Smile I'm more of an HID person, but I love older fluorescents too. Are those colored lamps rare? Are they still made?
xmaslightguy   [Oct 12, 2011 at 03:49 AM]
The orange is actually a new color (out last year i believe) made by 'Industrial'
I think I saw 1 or 2 places online that had 'em ... but for an insane price of $22-$24 (& sold by the case only)

The Red/Gold/Green/Blue are still made by 'Industrial' as well (and they're very much like the vintage GE/Philips/etc colored lamps Smile ) price is more reasonable too, you can get 'em for less than $10, and by the 'each' as well!

I see even more lights in the background!
xmaslightguy   [Jan 20, 2013 at 03:01 AM]
Yep in the background is a lineup of 2-footers Smile
GEsoftwhite100watts   [Jan 20, 2013 at 03:06 AM]
Cool...
xmaslightguy   [Jan 20, 2013 at 04:29 AM]
If you look closely in the other pic with the pastel colored lamps, you can see a bit of those 2-footers lit
GEsoftwhite100watts   [Jan 20, 2013 at 04:34 AM]
I noticed that a little bit ago myself...
BTW is triphosphor warm white anything like halophosphate warm white (like my MainLighters?)
A_lights   [Jan 20, 2013 at 05:02 AM]
Triphosphor warm white is less harsh it seems...more soft colored... its hard to explain
xmaslightguy   [Jan 20, 2013 at 05:34 AM]
Yeah .. it'd really require seeing both close together, I'm sure the diff would be noticeable Smile
GEsoftwhite100watts   [Jan 21, 2013 at 04:26 PM]
I had to get rid of some of the warm white in my room because it's so harsh Laughing Eventually I want ALL daylight deluxe...
