Industria 2500 first time lit.
As I put power to it, I was confident it would work straight away, what I wasn't expecting was how quickly the tubes were able to strike up, this is excellent to see since it means even in cold atmospheres the tubes should start up as they should with little to no effort. Of course being T12 probably helps too. They really are as close together as they look in this image, which now has me wondering whether I should fit T8 tubes instead just to see how they will look, and what effect they'll have on light control and light spread, seeing as almost no reflector is visible at all.

I guess a fair bit of the light from the middle tube is lost into the outer two. I wonder also what it would look like with a T12 in the middle and two T8's as the outer tubes.
