Weird HPS cooling solution

[dz3ngara]

Is the bulb warm and erect? Do you pet the bulb? Do you stroke the bulb?

it's got the same fire as the day I met her, this comes as lube so we can get even freakier

your stupidity hurts my brain.

your brain can't hurt, it doesn't have pain receptors.

You have never experienced mental pain? Pain receptors are not the only way to feel pain.

I sure have. It all began long ago when I came across an RIU thread that had someone putting ice packs on their HPS lamp.

Ooooooh good one! (Heavy sarcasm)

You asked electricians to chime in. I'm a formerly certified residential electrician (Ontario, Canada), and I advise not doing it even if you think you can prevent an accident.

Ok, but look at it from this side, how much danger is there in cooling a pc with water? I would bet there is more chance for it to go wrong then my setup that nobody here is gonna see, because I really have been using this for the last 6 weeks and it works like a charm, all I wanted is to bounce some ideas with somebody, but this forum seems to be filled with my least favourite type of "stoners"

None, when your PC is outfitted with a proper water cooling system. Much like a water-cooled car engine.

An HPS is not fitted with such a water-cooling configuration.

Each to their own, but you asked electricians to weigh in, so I did.

I told you I made a cradle for it that handles any possible condesation and things are running smoothly, if you really are and electrician all I wanted to know is will this damage the bulb, or is it lowering the light output, the bulb has no direct contact with the cradle, the reflector wing is being cooled.

Bulbs are several hundred degrees c, they are not meant to be so cool you can hold them.

To work properly they need to increase internal temp so keeping it that cool may affect lifespan and spectrum.
