Philips F40T12/DX 40 Watt USA Alto Collection (October 2015)

I bought a case of these at Home Depot in Fairbanks, AK to (1) have some lamps for fixture projects I acquire while off in school, and (2) to convert everything I have back home to daylight deluxe and finally have all the F40T12 lamps match and get some vintage/collectable lamps out of use and back in the collection where they should be. Set me back about $77.

This case sat for a good year before being bought, it was pretty dusty! It was in the best condition too, others had lips opened, etc. I still had to have the cashier give it a tape job at checkout though.

They're my first 6500K F40s, my first low-mercury T12 lamps, and my newest F40 lamps. (Next newest is like 2013).
