  • This contraption I got from a local fair for cheap. I have no ideea what company is that because on the box we're written contradictory informations. For example, on the top of the box it says that it's a normal mercury lamp but on the side it says that it's a self-ballasted one. Also the burner inside the lamp was not straight as you can see. Nevertheless, I'm not planning to use this lamp again.

    What a strange brand this lamp is, now I learned from you another brand I didn't know, you have saved precious and rare lamps from the past where they no longer exist!

    What are your favorite light sources? I love HPS, fluorescent, LPS and mercury lamps and not LED only for their economy, but there are still many HPS lamps here in Greece, I have seen some LPS but very few, and several forgotten mercury lamps

    in general, HPS is much more preferred than LPS, because of monochromatic light, HPS and LED are the best

      Yeah...so sad to see that even the HPS lamps are dissapearing nowadays...

      neither can I believe that for so many years the roads were with sodium lamps, now they are these stupid LEDs with the tiring white light that disturbs the night, while the yellow was comfortable!

    I also want to ask you, are the HPS bulbs dangerous, is there a chance that the outer glass will break as well? I've seen so many videos of HPS where only the inner glass breaks, but is there any chance of this happening?

      Yes, if the glass is already cracked, it can break due to the heat expansion. This can happening with all HID lamps. I have a mercury vapour lamp that was cracked durting the shipping and almost exploded after the second use.

      Be careful with these experiments! the problem is not the mercury since it is in a small amount of about 12mg but the glass because they can injure you if it is new the lamp should I not worry?
