Missing lens, been missing for more than 15 years! 
I have seen this 15 years ago, it hasn't changed much, was day burning 15 year ago too! Note the ballast in the back on the pole?

Remote ballast a light and it can run 24/7 like this for it's whole life. I guess the rain doesn't crack the glass (hot glass + cold rain = cracking)?

the outer bulb is made of Borosilicate glass....quite abit more resistant to thermal shock than regular glass.

Looks to be 400w size lamp. I wonder what sort of diffuser was on this.
Form109   [Sep 11, 2011 at 05:00 AM]

joe_347V   [Sep 11, 2011 at 04:50 PM]
