Thorn 60w SLI/H moments after striking.
This is the first SLI/H lamp to enter my collection and what a stunner it is. Pic shows the lamp moments after striking for the first time. I am running this on a philips 65w fluorescent choke and the starter is a Thorn 155/500 and the starter holder is also thorn. I am keeping a close eye on the amps and volts to see how close this ballast is running it.

Me too. They are lovely lamps. A massive thanks to Jonathan L for picking this up for me and to Danny for keeping hold of it until I could collect it.

Good clear picture! Insane to think these lamps went out of production in the late 80s!
