Midnight is clear again

The only 30w reflector bulbs I could find are too tall, the glove would hit them with one installed.  But I always shop around when I'm anywhere that sells bulbs.  A dimmer is helpful too but I'd prefer to just be able to turn it on a go.

I have always wondered if maybe a 40watt bulb is too hot for a 32oz lamp. I think that's why they almost always spike the same way, and overheat so easily. I would like to try one with a 30watt reflector bulb, and see what happened.

Well, it got a lot easier when I bought a timer.  The Midnights without the pinholes in the base seem destined to run hot, probably not the best design.

Yay! Congratulations, it looks really nice. :)

...But doesn't cycling SUCK? I've had 2 USA 32oz globes that I've literally been cycling every day for the last 6 months. They're better, but still cloudy! When I got them they were like milk, though. (@_@)
