Small mercury arc rectifier in operation
Owned by a mate of mine who I went to visit earlier today - yes, that's right, he has a fully operational mercury arc rectifier located in his bedroom as well as multiple street lanterns and fittings... Quite the collection! I've always wanted to see one of these in person...

Unbelievable! I know some person who have these rare devices but only pair of them was so brave to run this monster Very Happy I also have similar rectifiers but I fear to run at home.

I've always wanted a MAR but wouldn't be comfortable to have it in the house just in case of an accident. Saw a rather large one a couple of years ago still in its original housing from when it used to power a large goods lift.

This would make an excellent prop for some scary medical setting for a short film Cool Cool
