Just for any of you who might have bought a copy of the PLC I have sent an email today with an updated link. Might need to check any spam if it does not appear in your inbox. ::Neil::
It sounds interesting. I obviously am not involved with this because I have no idea what 'PLC update' is.
It's a must to have. I have downloaded the last update from Neil, and am most grateful for this continued service we get for the small amount of money the first purchace of the printed PLC was.
I'll bring my copy to show you tomorrow, Trevor, although it's years out of date - marked as ©2001...
Yes it is available. This was not intended as an advert for it but as the list growns I fear that some email programs may reject an update notice as spam. 2001 is the first edition which If I remember right ran to around 80 pages. Moved on since then and it is now a PDF with about 230 pages. It is a collectors guide with all the lamp models and manufacturers I know of with historical notes on the companies and people who made them. Deal is you bung me US$20 via PayPal and give me full name and email address and I give you a download link. As revisions are made I will then email you with a link to the update for free. ::Neil::
Hi Neil. Thanks for the info. Just need to restore my funds after buying the Kynoch lamp and I'll be in touch. You may not have intended the post as an advert but I am sure I am not the only member who was unaware of this important and useful archive. Regards, Jeremy
Well it's been around in one form or another for 30 years. In the 1980s it was typed and photocopied and in a pc since the early 1990s. As far as I know it is the only publication that lists every manufacturer and model of pressure lamp we know of. If I had it printed it would probably cost over £50 a copy and of neccessity be out of date as soon as it was printed so $20 and you can have it in a tablet and carry it around. I works well in a tablet because you can expand the pages and make the illustrations bigger and better than they might be in a printed book. ::Neil::
Neil, good to know that there is a Pressure Lamp Compendium available at that reasonable price compared to the amount of work you put in. I'll order a copy! Stephan
