Put anything here that's badly designed/made, failed, catastrophically exploded or just an epic fail in a general sort of way.

'Used for a few weeks'

'Years of use left in them'

From the picture, I'd beg to differ......

I dunno… i would reckon the one on the right has only been used for a few weeks if that. Left one maybe few months. So they are probably worth it

Looked like quite a lot of emitter lining the inside of the arc tubes and the discoloration of the part of the bayonet cap not protected by the lamp holder suggested a fair bit of use

Left one looks like it’s got a couple years on it
