Ligman Columbus 2 70w SON Spotted a seller on eBay who seemed to be flogging various bollards in CFL, halide and SON flavours as ex-demo from a showroom. My chances of ever getting a Cromptoon Chruchouse or Crownlight seems to be nil so I thought I may as well get a decent bollard while I still can to play with. Decided to go for one of these Ligman Columbus 2's in sliver finish which looks quite nice tbh. May re-gear it with a Philips 50/70w choke and install it somewhere!

Quite a small light aperture?
FrontSideBus   [17 Apr, 2020 at 11:46 AM]
Bigger than it looks tbh. For scale, it’s slightly over a meter tall and about 22cm wide.

That's very nice!

That looks very similar to the Ansell bollard I have, but better built in all honesty. Who was the seller out of curiosity? I'd like a second bollard to install outside my new workshed when i eventually get it.

Seller was j0shea But doesn’t look like he has anymore in stock. There was a shorter black version in 35w G12 halide flavour but that must have sold too.

Looks a copy of the ansell type

Yeah, probably made in the same factory and sold under a load of different brands. Strange how the Ansell ones never came with a big conical reflector in the top dome though.
Dave   [18 Apr, 2020 at 12:10 PM]
The Ansell ones did, but they were comparatively small, and any exposed interior paint in the top dome was black. The lamps were also set 80% inside the lower reflector, so light output from factory was dismal to say the least. Of course when I restored mine I sorted these issues out.
FrontSideBus   [18 Apr, 2020 at 02:36 PM]
Ah right. From what I read about yours I got the impression that the entire dome was painted black.
