. Not sure if all of them are vintage.
I buy, sell, and trade vintage ceiling fans. I also do commercial fan/lighting related projects, am connected with several major fan manufacturers, I am happy to talk to anyone ages 2-200 interested in ceiling fans! Like my Facebook page: / spiffyceilingfans

That's the problem with digital meters. Just used a regular continuity tester and be done with it. If it lights up, the circuit is good, if it doesn't light up then the circuit is bad. Analog meters for everything else. The needle goes to position and stays there until current is changed or removed.
You question your leads replace them. If the pins are corroded clean them you can't get an accurate reading with these two issues seems waste of time and flip the bulb rather than moving the meter back and fourth.
That delta lighting bulb probably won't work because it is most likely leaked to air if you can see into it
I have some fluorescent bulbs that only have one pin on the end the very old. I would like to know how to test them
Do you have a known good fixture?
Some people have no intelligence! Why didnt he just leave the meter and camera in one place and flip the tubes? It would have shortened the video considerably and made watching it so much nicer, reminds me of some BAD home movies that bounce all around!
Because I had no camera stand with me. 40k views says I'm pretty smart. How smart are you?
So.. What is the take home message? Low ohms reading means good or bad bulb?
Low ohms means the filament is still good. Other things may be bad.
High ohms or open means the filament is bad, and it is very unlikely the tube will work
did the wb40 make the tube transparent?
No.
You didn't tell me anything like why only test one end and doesn't the discoloration mean its ng. Don't asume people know things 😅
You said continuity test. But your ohms testing.
That would mess up alot of novice multimeter users unless they are paying attention to your setting on the meter.
Continuity = resistance.
@@dspiffy not quite
@@primariaorasuluiabrud918 "Continuity testing is the act of testing the resistance between two points. If there is very low resistance (less than a few Ωs), the two points are connected electrically, and a tone is emitted. If there is more than a few Ωs of resistance, than the circuit is open, and no tone is emitted"
Catinuity testing not resistance measuring
consider replacing the battery in your meter
Battery is fine. I have a new meter now.
usefull + easyway
Are you looking for some more of those tubes? Message me on Facebook I sent you a friend request
Where are you located?
Look at your friend requests on Facebook from Ethan Joseph and message me. I’m in the lighting groups and ceiling fan groups with you
were you born like that ??.A normal tube should be between 2 to 5 ohms and take less than a minute to explain let alone 11.31 minutes
50k views? I was born a genius, clearly.
Also your mom loved it.
