oldest fixture u own in your collection « on: October 14, 2008, 10:49:51 PM » Author: prawnman88
does not have to be a exact date just a era

mines the one i posted as of late looks more and more it might be a cutter fixture from arround 1915 to 1920 but this is still a guess till i get more info from friends on here.

Why I like LEDs on top of other lighting tech?
LEDs = Upgrade 95% of the applications. (That is if you avoid eBay's LEDs).


LED brainwash? No, people uses them cuz they work well for them.

My oldest fixtures are from the early sixtys(AEG Seil-/Ansetzleuchten), but where I´m sure with the date are my Siemens Ansetzleuchten(5La 311 1d) from 1965.
But maybe ,I get soon an older model ;D....
