WOO HOO Sylvania Halolight

[Captain Video]

Well, I don't have a Sylvania Halolight, and I don't remember if I even got close to one, but I do have some experience on transporting large, heavy, vintage televisions from one point to the other. Yours look like to be from the 60's, I am used to transport 50's sets, which are worse to transport. Let me tell you, that I am VERY paranoid, so I do take a lot of precautions when I do such transportations. But, to this day, all the TVs on which I, and NO ONE ELSE was involved on transportation, transported, arrived intact on their destinations. One of those was a big Philco 21 inch console from 1956 which traveled 700 kilometers.

On that Philco I did a lot of crazy stuff. I put three pillows on the back cover, secured with tape. One pillow was over the metalic cup that protects the CRT, the other two were one on the left, the other on the right of the cup. I them put a thin mattress on top of the TV, "envolving it" to the middle, and another mattress on the botton, also "envolving it" to the other half. Those mattresses were secured with ropes. I them bubblewrapped the whole thing. And finally, on top of all that, I envolved it with a cheap packing paper with labels written "glass" and "fragile" . Some people looked at me like I was a lunatic, but the thing arrived at my gate after a long trip without a scratch.
