Wrtl 2600 my collection (old pictures)
This is the old pictures of my WRTL 2600. I have since replaced the gear with Philips magnetic gear, and replaced the mini-cell with a 2-part photocell.
Here is the insides of the lantern.
Here is the 70w SON-T lamp
Undoing the 2 screws holding the gear tray in place, the gear can be seen.
The gear and the destroyed capacitor. Click on image to make it larger.
I had to replace the control gear, as the old gear nearly killed 2 lamps. 1 Edison 70W SON-E and 1 osram vialox 6Y 70w lamp. I replaced it with a Philips dynavision 70w SON ballast. I do prefer magnetic gear, but that magnetic gear had to be replaced, and this is the only 70W gear that I had.
Here is the connections. The earth wire is white as I didn’t have any proper earth wire.
