Here's a NOS Westy 175w DX merc cleartop that I think was made in the 70s (Date Code 13). It also has a full frame and thicker phosphor than my 175w Sylvanias from the 80s.
Cool, I guess we all need some HID setup indoors...if I can find a MV fixture of 175w or less it'll go in my room...the 400w MH I have is too bright...
nope, i am on the computer downstairs, don't have a laptop or one in my room unfortunately, right now 2 fixtures lit are modern deco F22/32W circlines with Phillips 830 lamps
yeah i like a lot of light fixtures but with a huge switch bank so the amount of light can be adjusted to what i need. for instance, have four lamp fixtures with two separate circuts and have every other fixture on a different circut too so in total there are four switches, one for circut 1A, one for 1B, one for 2A, and one for 2B. i like adjustable lighting.
Well in my room I usually only run lamps up to 200w since my room gets pretty stuffy with higher wattages running, I also like having variable amounts of light too.
Speaking of Bonusline/Life Guard Lamps, McCann Lightong's Mercury vapor lamp spec sheet was jsut posted! the ML version of the lifeguard lamp is the SuperArc™ lamp. SuperArc™ is also the term used for ML's standby arc-tube HPS lamps.
In this room there's lots of lit florescents!
