Weird white flakes over MH arctube « on: March 11, 2025, 01:15:29 PM » Author: LightsAreBright27
What are these white flakes? The lamp was used extensively, but still works. I have never seen this before.

Maybe they add something to the tube so it gives better light colour or when they were making it, some flakes got stuck to the tube.

Usually I collect bulbs (Mostly LED) and some HID ones. I also own a couple of streetlights, but most are made in Poland.

However, I mostly prefer SOX bulbs. LED bulbs in their efficacy will never beat SOX bulbs, in my opinion.

There are some on the outside of the arctube.
