I had the chance to visit Japan recently. Needless to say I had a good time buying and bringing back some of the unique lighting they had. Here's a shot of all the lights and lamps I brought back. I'll post individual pics later.
Rough List:
2x 40w F40T10/5000K
F10T8 5000K
F10T8 7200K
Bunch of 4-8w 5000K T5s
Panasonic F6T5 Striplight
Panasonic F10T8 Striplight
Small size Toshiba LED EXIT sign
A typical power outlet and light switch
Bunch of starters, including the unique to Japan screw in ones.
Panosonic LED bulb
GE 100w incandescents
57w energy saver incandescent
incandescent with a "dancing filament" similar to a GE Bala-Fire bulb
Toshiba 100w BT merc
2x Toshiba 40w merc (fun fact 60% of their streetlighting is /DX MV)
120-100v transformer, technically I can use my variac set to 100v but this lets me run stuff without pulling out the variac.

Did you had good time at Japan, Joe?
Yeah I was only in Japan for a week, that's exactly my reaction when I saw the 100w medium base ET23.5 merc, they also had a 80w version too. Believe it or not, T12s and T10s are more common there than 36wT8s. Although some stores did use LED tubes now.
Yeah the exit sign is pretty neat, it's actually only around 6x6.5" which is much smaller than ours. The newer Canadian exit signs do use the same running man design though, which they borrowed from Japan lol.
