Also liability sounds like an excuse to avoid the troubles of helping someone get rare parts and lights.... They seem to think we're too incompetent to have a light? Hah.
A previous member by the name of Lodge said this to us once, if you find a light fixture you like or if you want to get your hands on them contact your city officials if the power company says no.... After all you're the tax payer... You should have some sort of rights where those fixtures are running off too.
Nope, that too. Biggest problem sue happy people who want things for free and then sue when they hurt themselves. Best example was when a man bought a 10 KVA 7200 120/240 pole transformer and was using it as a Tesla experiment. Apparently he got distracted and used his 600 volt "wiggy" to check the voltage. Only problem he used it on the 7200 volt primary bushing and not the side 120V and he got zapped and I mean zapped with 7200V. He lived and sued the power company that sold him the transformer because his shyster attorney said the power company should not have sold him the transformer before checking if he was "qualified". A snow job by the lawyer and his client.
THAT is the biggest problem besides as you stated, they don't want to spend the time.
