Lighting catalogue - Introduction Here's the introduction page from the upcoming 2012 catalogue. In this first Vince Electric catalogue, the following products will be available for order: - SilverArc carbon arc lamps - Standard carbon rods - Lumistar (formerly Lifestar) carbon rods - Carb-O-Nitron carbon rods. In the next catalogue edition (2013 or 2014), there's gonna be plenty of new products. If anyone's interested I may prepare an ad with all the future products planned to be developed!

I've tried runnning carbon arc lights on a 26 amp 6.3v transformer, but couldn't get the arc to mantain. The rods simply exploded away, but made quite a bit of light. Maybe using them as photo flash lamps instead?

How big were the rods? 26A is quite a bit of current. And 6,3V is probably a little too low. If you have a stove heating element that has no use, try to use it as a ballast. This way you'll get around 60V and 2A. It should run much better especially if the rods are small.

They were small pencil "lead" sticks (.7mm graphite). I've tried up to 24v 11.5 amp, but rod explosions were also likely.

I've used 0.7mm pencil leads to make a makeshift carbon arc using a NST before, wasn't very bright but it sure stunk up my room. Laughing

MercuryVapor175: Yeah... That explains why you had pieces of pencil leads all over the place! I used pencil leads from wooden pencils for my very first experiments and it happened to me with as low as 2.5A! Try removing the carbon rods from AA batteries. Those perform very well with up to at least 4A.
