Old Tech
Do you like old tech?
I have a few very cool history objects/things lying around, here a couple pics
I don't know much about this camera, only it is a video camera from way back, it's missing parts that's as far as i know, but otherwise, internally it's in perfect state
That's a Butterfly miners head lamp, from the 1920's
Very much like this one:

I also have a very old RCA and one GE tv, bulb ones, but i can't get to them right now, too far away...
It's amazing how those TVs work, you can see the bulbs heating up on the back and just a small white dot on the screen, then the bulbs turn completely orange/red and the dot grows and fills the entire screen and you see the full tv picture, so cool
I also have an old turntable, very much this one

Too bad i can't get access to them since years ago, but some day lol, some day...
Anyways, do you like tech like this? I find it so magical and cool, i did not expect to but i inherited a lot of it and to me is like a link to a life i did not get to live, but still makes me feel i have a connection to it. It's a magical thing to go through all that stuff, thinking about how many things happened around them and who were previous owners and what they did with that camera, how many videos were taken and so on
LOL, i guess i'm a bit crazy, but i really think it is crazy cool to daydream about the history of this objects like that
