You can't have too many lamps, but you can have not enough space If only moving wasn't so expensive

I agree, lamps are like potato chips, you can't have just one.....dozen !!!! I personally couldn't imagine moving all of the stuff I have !
Absolutely..! Another SOX lamp just arrived this morning, a 91W SOX-E, so that's another one ticked off the wattage ratings list, only the 10W (fat chance ) and the 131W SOX-E to go, then that will be all the SOX ratings. Then we start trying for the 60W & 200W SLI lamps, then we might have a go at getting all the different ratings from each manufacturer, as the ones we have are a mixture I doubt we'll ever get all the SO/H and SOI/H ratings, but we'll have a go..!

Tha SOX MADMANNN

The space isn’t the problem for me, it’s the financial cost. I have expensive taste... for SOX and MV.
I have most of my lamps in flip top bins on shelving units with the 135w+ SOX in gun cases. Fixtures are fit into whatever size box I can find. Cobraheads fit well on a scalloped diaper changing pad lol.

I'm going to make a box on wheels that will slide under our bed for the longer lamps.

I already did run out space for my lamps and fixtures. Especially because I had to move a part of it to another location. Finally I found plenty space in our (company) former street lighting storage room but that’s only a temporary solution.
I do need to sell off most of the lamps which I got in plenty numbers like new old stock 80W mercury lamps which I have 120 of them.

I tried sell locally (in Finnish auction site) a bunch of (60pce) unused 75w & 100w incandescents 5 EUR +shipping for the whole bunch and despite it was there for several months nobody was interested.

存放空间不够几乎是每个收藏爱好者的通病,从最初的只在我房间(次卧)摆放,灯架放到床底下,然后到现在几乎摆满了我家全部的房间,主卧也摆了一部分,现在大部分都已经摆到客厅了。

I did try to avoid keeping my lamps in the apartment but now I put some of the best ones as a display in the living room. Other lamps and fixtures are now stored in four different locations.

Hmmm, I think I'll have to pass at that price right now, we have a set of spectral lamps to save up for..!

I'm going to be putting up some shelving in our living room to display some of our more special lamps on.
