  1. Watched it..ehhhhhhhh..too much tissue and not enough issues. I also like Real Houswives of Orange County in the Shark Tank.
  2. It is true regarding hours per start. we rate commercial linear lamps by hours of operation between starts. The longer the lamp is on, the less stress to electrodes ectera. Kinda like a body in motion stays in motion. ;o)
  3. Time to hunker down! All of our DFW area friends stay low and hunkered down.. Except for Mark @ Alltex..He is heading for the bar as we speak..lol
  4. Years ago there were Door to Door long life light bulb salesmen.."The last light bulb you will ever buy ma'am, you will leave these to your grandchildren" Heck you used to buy a case of lamps and get a toaster...lol As far as cathode guards..EVERY flourescent manufacturer worth 2 cents has a CG on their lamps. And while there is some debate as to extending life, it does prevent end darkening from phosphors settleing on the hot electrodes and thus falling out of the cycle, similar to a "getter" on HID lamps.....
  5. I actually have a case of F32T8's on deck to ship to Erik (Erik, sorry this hasnt happened yet!)
  6. Would it not need to be listed in the S.A.M as a sign component?
  7. Some companies will offer terms of 2% net 10.. 2% off invoice if paid in 10 days..but its a bitch to control on my side, so I dont..lol Just negotiate well and get the best possible value for your $$$ I at times ask my accounting dept to extend terms out to say 60 days for larger oders IF they are current or can become current before a large order.
  8. I would have talked them out of such a big investment, what with the Mayan calendar prophecy and all! Lol really sad I wont meet you this year Manuel.
  9. Ok guys & gals we are getting closer to the big show.. Save your hard earned $$$ for drinks @ Bahama Breeze Friday night and use this link to get into the show on me. (just dont look at any other lighting vendors..LOL) See you there Go to … www.signexpo.org/free Use promo code: 30159 Ushio Booth # 2621
  10. I get what Axiom is doing. I do think Distribution is important. Well a STOCKING distributor is important. I cover ground on all my sign customers. Anything faster and they foot the bill.
  11. Only 8 rounds? I'd put 15. This is even getting labeled that it is abusive to the kid. whatever!
  12. Hell, if it was easy everybody would do it! I had the same week though.. Scheduled a week in Dallas in early December, without realizing why Feb 5th was sticking in my brain..No birthdays, no anniverseries...hmmm OH SUPERBOWL..ya my plane left Florida exactly at kick off..dummy. Everything I touched last week broke..I was afraid to take a leak!
  13. when its 70 degrees? lol Or when they give me the other 30% of the nation. I have a guy in Chicago, his name is Kevin also, but not as good looking as I am. I will see you in Orlando yes??!!!
  14. Going to be in the Big D area on these dates.. Anybody on here in that area that wants to shoot the breeze and talk sign lighting, guns, cars, this website, or anything else under the sun...Let me know..Monday afternoon is semi open! Thursday is out as I am booked up in Austin.. Looking forward to a chance to meet some of you before ISA
