Sodium lamps are technology.
Post your sodes, mercury lamps, metal halides, neon glow lamps, etc.
High-intensity discharge lighting

i miss photonicinduction
Jordan Morris
he did come back for a bit last year tho
Ethan Gomez
yea i noticed, but he's gone again :(
Caleb Hill
VGH how come this sovl thread is so underrated
Aaron Gutierrez
why wont they just use warm white LEDs
why are they replacing the cozy yellowish HPS with fucking cool white LEDs
reeeeeee

For me it's Krypton
James Gutierrez
But I also like Hydrogen and Mercury
Noah Perez
where can I buy a bong like that

boomers. i get in arguements way more than makes reasonable sense over cool white vs warm leds.

I guess the improved colour rendering is a more obvious benefit compared to blue light being harsh on the eyes or messing with circadian cycles or whatnot.
Also this might be a bit of a stretch, but I see it as another way of justifying the expenses of switching to LED to the layman - they might question the need if it looks exactly the same, but when they can actually SEE the difference they might go "oh okay it must be better then".
One would assume that it's the boomers who would be nostalgic for amber lights.

I have HPS and metal halide I used to use for growing.
I detest those damned bulbs

>tfw accidentally triggered my gf's photophobia with my SOX lamp
Oliver Sullivan
where can i buy something neat like this cheap
Julian Gomez
is your best bet
Chase Morgan
I used 600w hps for growing weed for 10 years. Just switching to LED's now
Daniel Peterson
That wouldn't help much, the lamp would still be piercing bright with no diffusion. Gotta solve those too.

Sodium lamps produce monochromatic light, no LED on this planet can reproduce that, no matter how "warm" they are. The monochromatic effect is what makes the contrast so extreme and thus gives it this awesome safety effect on the street.
>b...b...but the color accuracy is better with LEDs
>Sorry inspector, I didn't see the kid behind the parked car but the moment I hit him, he looked very color accurate

Only SOX
Most sodium lamps are HPS which do have some color
