Lighting inside the new shed. Lighting awesomeness or lighting overkill? I'll let you decide. Lighting for the shed has been chosen to be as over the top as possible. Installed and wired over 2 days, I've ended up with 13 fittings, with a total of 30 tubes across them all. Also featured are two of my conversions, i just felt they needed to be installed, this being the perfect place to install them. From front to rear we have: Coughtrie SFB16 opal black base GEC Valiant Mk1 Thorn OBD3008 Escort Coughtrie SFB16 prismatic grey base Siemens Valiant 2X4w conversion 2X6w conversion Coughtrie SFB32 GEC Valiant Mk1 Coughtrie SFB16 prismatic black base Philips MFB24 Thorn OBD2008 Escort Coughtrie SFB16 opal grey base As expected, it looks like a disco when striking up, this being the prime reason I wanted to install as many as I have.

That is superb! I will have to see this in person one day. Cool Cool

They certainly provide a good level of illumination in there - not sure you need the planned 4x twin SRS fittings as well....

That’s a cleaver photo Dave, it looked like a warehouse from the thumbnail Cool , nicely done!

All my favourite type of tube. Perfect setup.
Danny   [14 Oct, 2019 at 08:30 PM]
Yep brilliant set up. Done a good job here
Dave   [14 Oct, 2019 at 08:32 PM]
ahh but those 4 twin SRS fittings will be separately switched, gotta have options of what lighting you want when you're in this collecting game Wink

The reason I've took this pic at the angle I have is simply because its the only angle where you can see all the lights

thats not a street fighter on the right shelf is it? nice lighting installation there
Dave   [14 Oct, 2019 at 10:10 PM]
It is a Streetfighter. It needs a new ignitor as the one thats fitted doesn't work, but whoever disconnected it has kinda cut the wiring round a bit so I need to sort that too.
