Coughtrie SFB16

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

Been after for one of these but the seller wants way too much. It is in great condition and comes with some Sylvania tubes that look like they're similar age to my own 1992 ones.

I'd be interested in that. Also I'm not sure if you saw the comment but I might be able to get some lights for you. Them Thorlux ones. I don't know for definite yet though.

Always liked these but never understood why they are as much as they are. Good quality yes, but not worth that!

New and boxed, might be worth say £40, but certainly no more!

Yes them 4 x 14w Thorluxs - I have 2 in the shed which I’m thinking of keeping and there should be more to come but I’ll have to wait at the moment for the others alright.
