Halfpiper from WWII installed!

By now my basement is entirely lit with /DX fluorescents! In this part of the basement there was still an incandescent lamp, I decided not to change it immediately and, as I did with the other fixtures, convert them as they burn out. The fixture lighting the north part was the very last one to get a new lamp just before I decided to entirely convert the basement to fluorescent. So that part stayed incandescent for a good while.
But last week the lamp burnt out. You can see the 2ft wraparound that was already in place for months and was supposed to kick in afterwards. But I thought a longer 4ft fixture, hung parallel to the workbench would do a better job lighting the area.
Just after installation I had some issues with the starters, but they decided to work at some point xD. The tubes are late 2000s Sylvania /DX by the way!

Can you get a pic of the etches on these /DX Sylvanias?
