Well I can say I did something semi productive today. I put up two neon tube fixtures in my basement to replace two sockets that have CFLs. I'm always scared I hit them when doing workout, the neon tube fixtures are flush with the joists so nothing sticking out.

Did not do any of the actual electrical though, need to do that during the day, going to overhaul a lot of the electrical in my basement at same time as there's lot of circuits that could be split up and ran from the server room panel to free up spaces in the main one.

How does someone else's car make you feel old?

I was born in 1979.

I was born in 1979.

I was dating a hot ballet chick that did pointe that also played flute in the marching band, was driving a pretty nice Camaro, and had joined the USMC on a 6 month delayed entry plan in 1979.

Now I'm getting old.

YMMV.

Why are you putting up neon fixtures?

Neon tubes are so 50s.

He wants to pretend it's the 50s

 

[Rubycon]

I'm sure he's confusing something else with neon.
It's rare to have them in a residential setting. And if not set up properly can be an electrocution risk. 15kV @60mA hurts like hell!

Got them for free. They have T8 ballasts so not that bad efficiency wise. I currently have some regular sockets with CFLs but they stick out, and at risk of being hit when doing certain exercises like shoulder presses. I mounted these flush inside the joists.

These are "only" 600v so nothing too too bad.

Ok so they are 1" FL tubes.

Yeah just basic lighting like in an office. The 4' length ones. Nothing too abnormal.
