When I'm not sick I'll post my stockpile of SF and non-SF lamps. The age of the WA group buy was long over by the time I could have participated. I barely managed to come across 3 1185s

Have way more than these...like at least 65 more 1185, 40+ of 1166, all of the FiveMega bulbs, CL bulbs, AW's 6V bulbs, etc.
When you have an opportunity, do you think you could post a consolidated album of macro shots of all the WA and FM bulbs you have (i.e. clearly showing the filament and envelope). I feel like that would help scratch an itch I've had for 18 years since I was only lurking during the Golden Age of the hotwire :LOL:

The login is in a medium gray text in the light gray area just above the starry blue background on the right "login or sign up". You have to be in the "Forum" tab.

Members commented that the HID Planet forum is mostly dead now. Probably list them on EBay. Not sure of price value. I asked Dan what his sell for, as he has a massive stockpile of these Fatboy DL50's

Okay, having finally gotten them arranged for a family portrait, here's the SF trove. Some of these I managed to obtain by digging through old business cards from gun shows going *years* back and emailing them. I was feeling pretty gutted after one dealer told me they knew what I was asking about but thought that they must have thrown them all in the garbage around the time SF discontinued their incandescent line. Mercifully they got back to me a few weeks later and told me they were mistaken and actually dug up a quantity of MN60 and MN61 assemblies.

Nice. The jealousy is strong

That's an awesome collection of those SF bulbs! Congrats
