Camera torture!
I well remember taking this, and the funny noises my camera made whilst trying to focus on it!, note the now fully run up MBTF, dimmed down against the others.

A very nice parade. Torturing the camera was worth it. The sound of the ballasts was guaranteed to be interesting.

This 90s Thorn gear was pretty quiet to be honest, back when Thorn ballasts were king, way before Thorn went to the dogs! Shocked

Inrush current would have been interesting lol.

Didn’t take out 13 amps Rolling Eyes

How quick are 13 amp fuses supposed to go anyway? I've got a 2kw ceramic PTC style fan heater that draws almost 15 amps for a couple of seconds upon switch on!

Fuses dont blow at their exact rating, and for small overloads they take time to heat up. 15A might never blow it at all, higher overloads for few seconds won't either

I’ve had 32 amp breaker’s that act quicker than 13 amp fuses! Shocked
