How to date old Westinghouse tubes? « on: September 07, 2011, 11:24:02 PM » Author: SOX55W
First, can someone date this blackender I found a couple weeks ago?

Second, how does the westinghouse date code work?  I searched around with no luck.

Thanks!  ;D

Bring SOX lamps back!!!

FYI, LED's are NOT the most efficient lighting technology available! Don't know how people keep coming to that conclusion!

My other interests: sports cars, refrigeration, microcontroller projects, computer hardware, and any sort of custom fabrication.

Best guess on the date would be mid-70s.

The more you hate the LED movement, the stronger it becomes.
