He's been editing the original post to show what is and isn't available. It would be very expensive in shipping to get something from the USA to the UK, I'll be spending a pretty penny on that 1968 175w OV-15, I won't go into exact price though.

And keep in mind, nearly everything listed here runs on a 60hz power supply, so even if it's 240v, it won't work in the UK without special equipment.

I absolutely love the OV-15, so it's a worthwhile investment for me, and an opportunity which may not present in the future, so thanks for being so flexible @Maxim. 8;)

I think the US states that have enacted fluorescent lighting bans so far largely did so in order to reduce mercury pollution. I think this is due to the international adoption of the Minamata Convention on Mercury.

Okay. Sorry. I just felt like I needed to get that out as I had some pent-up frustrations towards Alex in particular. And it was getting to the point where seeing his username elicited an eyeroll and the expectation of a condescending message. So there's that....  :eoled:

As far as I have seen on this forum so far. Alex has not said things that could be interpreted as condescending aside from the current thread. And even if he has. That needs to be addressed privately instead of blasting personal political vendettas on public facing channels on a forum that explicitely forbids both disrespect towards fellow members and political conversation that does not relate to lighting directly. This is how threads get shut down. And how forums die because people cannot get along...  As it stands now I have not brought attention to this thread in staff chat. If it continues down this route I will. I am sure Rudy will notice this thread anyway though so lets just stick to lighting conversation please.

@Multisubject — Unfortunately, no one likes a Teacher's Pet or tattletale. Especially in middle and high school years. I did that in middle school and I think that is one of the key reasons I have so many enemies. So, no offense to you, but I full-well understand your lack of popularity. Been there, done that. :bulbman:

If you had to completely make a model of hid fixtures disappear, for a led fixture, what brand would you get rid of and replace it with?

For example:

Ael 115

Into

Autobahn Atb Micro

@Maxim Alright Alright. This conversation needs to be pulled back toward Lighting and not veer into conversations about anything else in the political sphere. You are brushing very close to violating rule 1 due to:

Your reply makes you sound like a condescending, partisan idiot. Just saying...

And you have already violated rule 4.

The previous comments can remain however further discussion that veers away from lighting needs to be done elsewhere offsite.
