Hi,
Following on from my intro post, I would very much appreciate some advice.
Very briefly - I have a lovely bulb - see the pictures here...
******************************www9XAKdC8e7RTt47
But no other gear or casings etc....
I want to fire it up for purely cosmetic reasons; would it be possible to safely apply power to it - and if so what do I need and where do I attach the leads!
If
> this would be very difficult, expensive or just too dangerous. NB. One of the arms has some damage (see the pictures) and I am concerned it may be a weak spot that might fracture when in operation - is this genuine a concern or me over egging it??
> Then I'm considering opening it, disposing of the mercury (properly of course) and using some modern leds to light her up.
Thoughts and advice would be very welcome and of course I would show off what I eventually achieve.
Many thanks...
