    Chaps...theres something not right in the pics below. Can you give me some advice/pointers? The colour mismatch makes me think this is a "bitsa".
    Thx

    Indeed they are not: nothing to be seen on my old-fashioned computer (Chrome) for now.

    Sticking my neck out here, I'd guess that it started out as a Bialaddin 315 but someone smashed the alloy frame by mistake so they replaced that with an older collar and frame from a 300/305. I'm sure it works but it looks really wierd!

    I think Col has the right of it-315 tank and top with a 305 frame...
    Probably works fine but...ow my eyes!

    This is an ad current on t' bay and one best to ignore. Green collar says 305, tank, control and top say 315, the airbuttons are missing , the glas broken. So I do not see this lamp working without extra parts. But not uncommon to see a carrot & pea lamp offered (or green beans with tomato).
    It is the price tho that makes this occasion a hoot: 39.99 in GBP, but you are invited to make an offer.

    I offered 15. Seller declined. I'll pass. At 15 it would have been a project/ spares.

    Of course the seller declined; what were you thinking?
    This is an artfully constucted gozmi of a light machine, emanating the tranquil past of this bijou yet hinting at pleasurable dynamics for those who transcend on it.
    How can you possibly overlook this?
