Beautiful!! The second Peach! I presume you got this the same time as the Ekco? I think a lit pic is called for! Razz

O.k I see if I can do a pic good enough to post! yes I did get them from the same shop I got 6 altogether all 80w bc but only 2 Peach does anyone know anything about the 8ft bc was it 125w or 80w
Tom   [Nov 20, 2011 at 09:32 PM]
BC 8 footers were 125w. Rarer than hen's teeth now! Originally designed to run off 125w mercury ballasts as was the 80w with 80w MB ballasts.

Yes the 8 foot BC tubes are non existant now. Such a shame, I dont even know of any collectors that have any! This tube was made 4th week of June 1969! Vintage stuff!!

I have only ever seen 2 single BC 8 foot fittings must have been the early 1960s in a baker's shop around the corner from my Dad's place. This tube 1969! Must have been almost new when I got it. Thanks again Kev for getting the date for me.

One of the most uber awesome tubes ever to appear on this site has just popped up on the randoms! Razz

My 8ft Col 36 tubes are bowing down to its greatness

Oh yes indeed! Even our radar reds are doffing their caps!

Cool, a peach coloured BC, can`t be many of these about?

Look what just cropped up in the randoms! Still one of the best tubes we've had on here!
