Sylvania-Powerlite B2228
Here's a rare find in the wild...a Sylvania-Powerlite B2255 fitted for 1kW BT-56 lamps which I believe is called the B2228. 
Note that the refractor is missing revealing the 1kW clear top inside. [img]http://www.galleryoflights.org/mb/gallery/images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Sweet! Awesome lamp too. This may be a bit random, but why are a lot of the companies in Canada "Limited", while most in the US aren't?
