I would love to own exactly this. MBFU is a technology shunned by the indoor gardening scene but has great potentials few people realize.

Cool alarms in the room! 12:12 BRK 100S 13:12 Gentex GXS-90 (the red) Edwards 70050-G5 (the doorbell alarm)

I used to sell these fans... Patton used to be a good brand... I had the window mount version and had the motor burn out on me.... but it did a good job

i have 2 circlines 40watts in the uk. one is in my bathroom

The wire that is springy is tempered steel. It was used during world war 2 in many fluorescent snd other fixtures. The war time restrictions on metals dictated it. It is heat treated to resist rust and it is a slightly better conductor. The insulation has no rubber in it, only several cotton braids over each other. It is pretty rare, so definitely leave it in place. Some ballasts had it too. Try a magnet on it. It will stick. Designed for world war 2 material rationing. I have fluorescent units with it as well. The 2 lamp ballast has 2 separate 20 watt chokes inside and it is known as a 2-multiple ballast. I have a rare 3-multiple GE ballast that is pretty rare, and there are also even rarer 4-multiple ballasts! Glad ya didn’t use cool white. They are nasty and are trash can fodder. Cheers! 😋

Did you end up keeping those harbor breeze chains that came with the light of did you put one on the fan

of course every person who has wierd obsessions with random things are furries

besure to use steel wool to finish getting the paint off.... the stripper is that jelled stripper and I have used that before, I use the Jasco paint stripper... also, WD-40 helps too....

no

you put the pull chain in the wrong place. there was already a knockout for the switch on the plate, why didn't you use that first?

40A circuits would be # 8AWG copper.

No trip to Key West?

2:26 That Neon box thing display looks sick

The Windows sticker on that Lenovo PC was certainly added later by the previous owner. That sticker is a Windows 10 (Post 1809) sticker that started shipping on PC's in 2018...which is the cutoff for computers that support Windows 11 (hence why it says "Windows, and not Windows 10). OEM's always place those Windows stickers on the side or rear. Never the front...at least not since Windows 7. Microsoft knew what they were doing as the sticker indicated licensing for Windows 10, and later Windows 11 as the hardware of that time would support it. Hopefully this makes sense. Because your PC is from 2013, it was probably configured with Windows 7, and there would have been a slightly different sticker on the side to represent Windows 8.

Your custom fixture turned out wonderful! I really love it! ❤ And lovely T5 find!

18:21 do you have any info on these fixtures? I'm doing a whole search on these and the only info i got so far was from this.

I've gotten a whole bunch of 12V 15W fixtures that are single bulb and dual bulb. Also repaired a 12V ballast for a 9W CFT9 bulb. Ballast for it the caps was blown and the transistors was blown. Fixed it with new caps and transistors and she is good as new! Also gotten the kind of ballasts for buses that are also preheat type, but not like this. You use the control wire on it to turn off the high voltage side and leave the filaments glowing. This ballast is 24V.

I want my own place so I can install these 2 circline florescent I got on ebay! My parents would never want these installed they prefer these incandescent octagonal ones. These you installed are awesome. I love the flicker and stuff.

Hey! I actually have a few 4 bulb fluorescent lights from the 60's! Still use them till this day, i even have a few of those weird single post weirdly shaped gas station lights still in use

This was in my recommended and I was going to suggest LEDs but when I was typing it I saw a giant halogen bulb and I was like "ok forget it" 😂

3500K fluorescent lights are named "Neutral White", "White", or as the Chinese GE calls it, "Bright White". Even though the Bright White name is commonly used to refer to 3000K.

I love your fursuit

idk I also like this fluorescent tubes because is small shadows are minimal when I doing something with soldering and repair

These F20 kitchen units are so beautiful. I once installed one on a modern ceiling fan light kit. Installation was more painstakingly difficult than I anticipated. In the future, I might consider using a 4 inch ceiling fan light kit to help convert one of those kitchen units into a long chain swag lamp.

Great video, I like those flursent fixtures! I also like the outro, it's nice to finally see your fur suit in action.

I was wondering what the difference between this channel and your main was. Then I started the video and you were in costume 😂

I found a couple of those on Ebay new, those preheat ballasts for f20 bulbs, i reballasted a fluorescent drafting lamp i have that uses 2 f15 lamps. Had to modify the ballast by cutting off a couple of the mounting fins to get the ballasts to fit in the lamp, the ballasts i bought weren't made too much later than the one you found. 2019. I'd say it probably likely depends on where you shop to determine whether you can still get certain components or not

Amazing fluorescent light fixtures and bulbs! Those go perfectly in your hallway. Excellent job as always!

Beautiful preheat fixtures!

Wow, those fixtures turned out great! It kind of has me tempted to go through and fully repaint my half-pipe kitchen unit! Since your last upload, I actually ended up acquiring three more kitchen units incredibly lol. (I probably ought to video my own)Regarding that really weird stiff wire I’m pretty sure I’ve encountered that stuff before as well, and I am pretty sure it’s steel. Possibly made around World War II era during the material shortages and rationing I would think. Good score with those 4 inch fitters, from what I’ve seen the kitchen units would’ve shipped with acorn style low profile plugs so they would fit in the adapter and fitter. Anyways, I enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing!

i love your suit so much also love your videos. <3

What the hell is this cringe furry crap?? I thought this was a lightning channel!

Mercovay, did you know i have a collection of lighting equipment too? (From Exit Signs to Weather Radios to Light Bulbs to Heaters)

I have that exact same pc but with a dying hard drive. I dont even know how much linux stuff ive done on it lol. That beep it makes when it turns on is very nostalgic to me. And the Netgear usb wifi adapter that never worked. Although the cooler is stock. Im pretty sure the cooler master isnt stock.

a question

From a young age, I had a fascination with lamps and ceiling fans. Then your videos started showing up in my recommended feed, and I was like "ooooh, foxy~" when I saw your icon. Would smash the subscribe button twice if I could. X3 Interesting PC there! Would have bought it too, for that price, hehe~ Would make for a decent NAS after installing a couple of drives in it. :3

There is no positive or negative. It's AC current!

The choke ballast WILL run 6 inch or 8 inch diameter circline just fine! It is a 14/15/20/22 watt choke, and the wires on the 32 watt ballast are type F fixture wire, and it is rubber insulated with a cotton braid over it is fine, until exposed to heat, in this case from the ballast. Heat dries out the rubber and the cotton braid. I have repaired so many I lost count, even went inside and replaced wires on some ballasts. And oops type RF wire.

I randomly found you in my recommended. Immediately noticed the channel icon and immediately subbed.

11:44 It seems like you need a thermally-protected ballast for circlines. So that would be Advance model LC-14-20-C-TP instead of model LC-14-20-C. You can also use model LO-13-22-TP, but it is more underpowered. Also, I think the IPP ballast that came with the circline fixture is actually a preheat ballast with an integral starter. The minimum starting temperature and current draw seem to suggest that.

I ended up buying an old circline that was rusty AF and I spray painted it and it's installed in my bed room. I didn't make a video but got some pics, it apparently was from the early 70s I think but it used an older ballast and still has the original tubes, it uses 1 big one small rings. I also ended up picking up a few spare ones to install once I got the choice of lighting here, my parents seem to prefer incandescent chandeliers over these cool ring lights. There's something about these that's just cool to me. Apparently the 2 I got as a set were salvaged from an old drive in that was built in the late 40s and oddly they were in better condition than the old 70s one I refurbished. Didn't come with the bulbs tho.

11:44 That is very strange, the ballast mentioning, "for straight tube only"

In my experience, I have noticed that the Advance LC1420 preheat fluorescent ballasts often underpower F20T12 tubes and 22W T9 circline lamps but often overdrive F15T8 tubes. I have later found that the Advance LC25 preheat fluorescent ballasts seem to properly drive F20T12 tubes and 22W circline fluorescent lamps even though they have been rated for F25T12 tubes, but seem to severely underpower them. Additionally, I have also seen those LC25 preheat ballasts being rated for 18W PL-L CFL lamps and they seem to drive them very well in addition to F20T12 tubes and 22W circline lamps.

Brasso is "polish" and it is labeled for aluminum, so why shouldn't it work? That's what they want you to think, anyway. Don't know what it will do until you've already done it. That said, rubbing compound from the automotive supply store may be the way to go at this point. The only things I would have done different when hanging the first lamp is to try to include a ground from the ballast mount to the box, as well as to turn the starter toward the back from the camera's view so that it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. Maybe angle it some so that you can still turn it on if you're looking for it, but to where it's not sticking way out in your view. I'm also wondering if the motherboard for that computer was also used in an all in one computer/monitor deal like was popular in 2013.

A little tip: after cleaning all the blades, loosen all the mounting screws on each blade and mount and push the blades toward the motor as you retighten the screws. Youd be surprised how often wobble os caused by an installer letting a blade get secured a little further out than the others. If this fails to work you may need a balancing kit to add a little bit of weight to one of the blades. If the motor itself is out of balance there's not much you can do to fix it.

If you have to use that threader again something that will help is if you use some lubricant while threading.

your suit is adorable i just wanna boop him :3

personal opinion on those led tubes they dont last , at work warehouse we have lot and a lot burned out way too early

I also enjoy the aesthetic of a lazily turning ceiling fan. I don't know why you don't have more subs on this channel. Very interesting content. I'm also sub to the 175 channel and I like that one also. I'm also a lighting nut

I actually have a life size Renamon, which is like 6 feet tall almost, it is more or less used as s snuggle pillow on my Japanese style futon, this plush you got looks more manageable size wise.
