It Was Nice
It was nice while it lasted. I had superior lighting coming over my right shoulder to either read or stitch. This afternoon after tidy tidy duties were done, I was going to stitch a bit. Hmm. The fan on my Fairfax unit was running, but no light.
Dennis was called into action. The unit was gotten open for a good look-see. A tiny bulb incased in a rectangular looking clear resin with the prongs of the bulb extended. In the inside was the parts number as only Burton bulbs were to be used.
Of course I went online. Burton medical products are still being manufactured. Their base is in England. My light source is from the dark ages.
I think I had the best for a time. At least I know how wonderful it feels to have adequate lighting for reading and stitching. I did go to antique medical devices. I found Nova bulbs that look like the unit that Dennis had taken out to look at. There was no reference that came close to the bulb number we had. At $144.00 or $180.00 for a pack of four, it would be a huge gamble. Sometimes we need to pull on our big girl panties and invest in the modern day equipment that we need for a quality of life.
It may well be OTT light time.
It is almost 80 outside but the day feels wonderful. I think if I were to check, the dewpoint and humidity would have low numbers.
Dennis is taking the day easy as I think he may have overdone it yesterday in his quest of hobby farming.
Enjoy the week everyone. Each day brings challenges and surprises . . . don’t I know it.
