Album name:Rob_TDCi / My Files
Manufacturer:Forest City of Manchester
Circuit Type:Switch start magnetic
Comments:This is a restored 2 x 8 watt road sign light. This seems to date from 1987. The ballasts are Tridonic. The lantern is seen here in a restored state. It did have a fuse for each tube circuit but these had become brittle following several decades of UV from the tubes so have not been reinstalled to the gear tray.

Did it have the thorn fuse holders?

It did yes but they have become really brittle and unusable with the UV so have left them out. Looking for replacment now.

It's great too see a great sign light. All seemed to be going LED now

I've got a couple of the fuse holders as spares for one I'm hoping to get, can't find similar holders anywhere
