Medved:

Welcome on GoL elektro666tech :) I'm one of those who improved their english by talking on forums, so go ahead, you speak english very well already, actually better than me when I came on another lighting forum in 2007! LOL
I hope you use burnt out HPS lamps ;D It could be a funny way to have fun with burnt out lamps for a last time LOL. That is the kind of experiments I like to do in my free times.
elektro666tech:
Of course, that it was burned out HPS lamp :)
The Arc Tube firstly leaked, and then exploded, I have photos of the arc tube, so I can post them here :)
@A_lights, you need more power :D Just give that HPS more power, and it will die :D I overpowered my HPS very much, ballast which are used to this experiment has summary power about 1,2 kiloWatts, and this power is enough to kill HPS very fast ;D

And I saw the video, wow! Great job on that! Did the arc tube explode or leak as I saw a blackening come on to the side very quickly.....
I could tell it was flashing 50 hz...am I right?

GullWhis, the lamp didn't flashing 50Hz, it lights continunously before it die, this flashing on the video is caused by camera.
gailgrove:
Wow I`ve never seen a HPS leak before, its cool ;)
elektro666tech:
Now something more drastically.
Old, burned out HPS lamps killed on 1000W, 16A ballast ;D
