PHANTOM II CENTRE LAMP BRACKET. Re. Centre Lamp Bracket D.72404 (stiffer section and thicker gauge than standard). We have tested out one of the above brackets using a Grebel spot lamp. There is less dithering than with the standard bracket, but still it is insufficiently stiff. To make a reasonably stiff job it will be necessary for the bracket to be as stiff again as the bracket D.72404 is stiffer than the standard one. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AJL. | ||
