After editing a non lighting related video for YouTube, since I had nothing else to do today, I checked every single lamp ending of every fluorescent lamp I'm using in my apartment, for any possible hotspot movements. All of my fluorescent lighting in use are CFL's, including PL-L lamps on HPF Rapid Start circuitry. Most of my CFL's have "fair weather" end blackening, including my two 2D 38w CFL's. Some have heavier end blackening, but none of which are indicative of potential EOL as of now. The two remaining PL-L lamps that I have used since 2019, are the most likely to have hotspot movement, but nothing crazy yet, and no rapid end blackening.

Made plans to install lighting in a BIG wooden showcase at work. It's about 10m of shelving in total, with about 50 shelves, all at different heights. The plan is to get led strip of 3000k with a >90 CRI and mount those behind some L-shaped plastic or aluminium strips so you don't look right into the LED strips.
Probably gonna use this stuff: https://www.ledstripxl.nl/led-strip-warm-wit-1-meter-60-led-12-volt-ultra.html
It's double the price of the bog standard warm white LED strips, but if we're gonna mount about 18m of this stuff, it better be good.

Right now, no one even looks at the showcase, because you can only see what's in there if you're right in front of it. At any other angle, the glare from the windows makes it impossible to look at it. Lighting the objects will make them actually visible and attractive. Right now, it's a dark 'hole' in the wall, so to speak.

First attempt of lighting was with a little 8w fluorescent, which worked very well. But a whole new installation with 8w tubes is not a smart thing to do, because of the availability of spares later on, as well as the need for 50 individual fixtures and ballasts, and the associated high power usage of over 12w per fixture, VS about 5 or less for the plan with the LED strips.
