Well I know I've been absent for the last half year or so but I'm finally back! I've certainly been busy though, I did a co-op placement at a company called
Igman Electric that finished late last month. Overall it was a good experience, the only thing that sucked is I didn't get paid. One of the things that I did is I rode around in the bucket trucks and saw many types of lights being fixed, I also got to relamp a cobrahead, that was pretty cool! Anyways we were under contract to Oakville Hydro to repair their streetlights and I got to see firsthand what it was like, and in case you were wondering I didn't get a single cobrahead from them, that's because they replaced ballasts! I didn't really get any pictures though simply because we were always rushing around and I only had my phone with me, which doesn't take very good pictures. Beyond just doing lighting I also got to see and do lots of other cool things (and not so cool too, like digging holes...) Overall a good experience, though I'm also glad it's done.
I also got a R37 in September from a family friend, which I'll need to get around to taking pictures of once I reorganize the basement...
In addition to all of this I recently learned I will be able to get some of
these lights shortly as the building is gone and some of the lights have come down. I was also told there was going to be some sort of "publicity event" about this, I really have no idea what that means, nor am I sure I want to, but I guess I will find out soon...
Anyhow that's about all that's happened while I was gone, I'm likely going to go on a commenting binge now, lol.
