Nice to see low pressure sodium lamps being made again since they are much more environmentally friendly than LED lighting.

I have once imagined some SLI/H-like low pressure sodium lamps being designed as a drop in retrofit for fluorescent tubes without having the need to change the ballast. If such lamps were to exist, I would certainly love to run them in some fluorescent fixtures that I have in my collection.

Technically, you could certainly run HID lamps on magnetic fluorescent ballasts and fluorescent lamps on magnetic HID ballasts. I have even made some homemade HID ballasted fluorescent fixtures myself.

Just because they stopped making SOX Lamps doesn't mean they stopped making LPS lamps.

So far, I know that the company TruHalo has SOX low pressure sodium lamps being imported from China.

Chinese LPS is better than no LPS.
