This lamp is still being produced unchanged. The box has not survived, but it was purchased at the end of 1999 or in 2000. The electronic ballast in it proved to be quite reliable, it still works after 20 years, despite the fact that the first half of them it worked in an unheated room (on the balcony). It also treats the lamps with care, although 2G7 lamps are less common in stores than G23. But the joint to which the plafond is attached broke in the first months. It's amazing how such a thin piece of plastic could hold something? The photo shows the replacement for it.

As you know, domestic production of electric garlands continued after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It is rumored that even nowadays it is possible to order garlands from electric lamp factories. So, today: the "Самоцветы" electric garland of the Ufa Electric Lamp Plant. Made in 2001. The lampholders are already made of polypropylene and are shaped like their Chinese counterparts. The casting quality of the shades leaves much to be desired. Somehow everything is casted inaccurately. Despite the fact that the garland is quite modern, it is still equipped with an old-style plug.

The electric garland "Lights of Ufa" (ОГНИ УФЫ) consists of 1000 lamps. Previously, nothing was known about this garland, except for the mention in the price list of the UELZ-SVET products. And now I have the opportunity to tell you about this previously unknown specimen. According to preliminary data, the garland was made by requests of the Palaces of Culture. It is intended for decorating Christmas trees from 5 to 9 meters high. It's not available for sale. The total length of the garland is 90 meters. It includes 20 spare lamps.

Seeing such a garland owned by dima4041 at the exhibition, I certainly wanted it to decorate my Christmas tree, and in mid-January my dream came true! I've got a light version of the garland, there are only 12 bulbs instead of 20, and the transformer weighs 574g. instead of 727g. Big difference. In addition, the light bulbs here are already transparent, but with same parameters.

The RSP44-700.001.U2 high-bay luminaire is designed to illuminate workshops with high spans, industrial premises with increased dustiness and humidity, for lighting and irradiation in agriculture. Its main application, of course, was in the greenhouse industry. Luminaire with mirrored biparabolic reflector. Base E40. Designed for a DRL 700W lamp.

Two years ago, during the renovation of the facade of one of the 9-storey buildings, such an interesting light-signaling device fell into my hands. It hung at the end wall inside a triple module. Apparently, it worked in the security (or fire) alarm system.
