Long live the HPS and SOX!
|
I’d love to find a Westinghouse /X mercury lamp someday. I could stumble upon one, but I’ll just have to look closely due to these being so rare that they’re up there with the /Y lamps! Were they made in any wattage except 100w? Any shape except BT-25? I know that I had made another post about these, but now I’d just like to say how much I want to find one.

I’ve always been interested in all kinds of lighting, mainly incandescent and HID, and especially all kinds of sodium lamps (HPS/LPS). I’ll tolerate LED but I’m not a fan of it. I’m not proud to say that my city has Devolved to LED.

Apparently the /X lamps were made in wattages from 100 to 1000 !  I'd LOVE to find a 700w one to add to the collection !  SEE LINK : https://www.scribd.com/document/394833080/Westinghouse-Mercury-Lamp-Brochure-1961

I'd love to get any wattage /X lamp. Apparently the 700w /X lamps were the original lamps used in the Hollywood special luminaires.
