GE Chroma 75 #2
Another Chroma 75, this time, again in my hallway, but running on an old EKCO QS fitting that weighs a tonne. I used to live above a post office, and when it closed and got refurbished, I saved the fitting from being scrapped. The tube is quite low hours, so has no real markings yet

That's interesting that it is from a post office. The building I work in is a former Royal mail sorting office and has some of these in the basement that have just been replaced with those horrible dome shaped LED fittings that always remind me of an old folks home. I must try and save a couple of the fittings.

Definitely worth a save, our telephone exchange has a few of these dotted about still in use (though I rarely see them lit) mine has a dead capacitor that shorted to earth, so need to replace that at some point. it is only the power factor cap, so does not affect its use as such.
