The Collection. To a regular person, it might look like just a giant tub filled with loads of "useless" lamps. But, to us, it's the core of what we do.

EOL — FLASHING
EOL — FLASHING
This has been my bedroom lamp since I got it sometime in 2022, but when it went EOL in 2025, it was retired and might be featured in a future burnout stream. It's a 3rd gen (so it has the new-style base) and it's got a B22 cap. I got it from eBay, from a seller who currently still sells a variety of SL* bulbs!
Status: At the EOL Centre
Date of arrival: Sometime in 2022
Entered the Collection: never
Fitted: Same day as arrival
Retired: May 2025
Extra comments:
The outer glass has a small crack but it works fine. The way it's fitted makes the crack just about invisible. There's also some weird yellow substance inside of the lamp on the glass.

DEAD — DIED ON STREAM
Sadly, this lamp died on-stream in late 2023. If you don't count uses by the previous owner, it lasted for about 11/2 years.
