That looks a beautiful colour

It is pleasant and relaxing, if a bit dim. I've just updated the descriptions. It's effectively Deluxe Natural.

Amazing! What fitting is that Nick looks old and interesting?
BC5-80   [14 Oct, 2015 at 11:51 PM]
Now that's another story Kev. I've no idea but I had to replace the lampholders because the originals had spark-eroded away (I assume) and no longer made reliable contact with the tube pins. They were identical to those shown on the GPO 4-footers I saw on another forum. The ballasts are quickstart, London Lighting Company I think. One of the suppression capacitors failed at lamp EOL, shorted out the tube and overheated one of the ballasts such that the encapsulant melted out, but it still works!

Bollocks that's a shame, have you got a link to the other forum with the identical lamp holders?
BC5-80   [15 Oct, 2015 at 08:09 PM]
Kev I found the link today at work and posted a comment. It's one of Andy's. This forum prevents pasting of website addresses.

Danny   [15 Oct, 2015 at 10:29 PM]
Sent you a private message nick

I'll have to upload pics of that fitting on this site! I have a few of those fittings and the lamp holders seem to function well.
Kev   [15 Oct, 2015 at 10:41 PM]
Ohhhh wow one of them!!! How cool great find!

Thanks Danny. Now I have to find out where to find the PM. Nothing has jumped out at me like I would have expected.
