Normal progression of lighting it just what it is.I used to get lots of commercial light fixtures,I would take them down just ahead of the excavator doing the demo.People would always buy a quality fixture for their garages for 1/20th of what they went for new.Then I had to give them away,now I don't bother to take them out.I gave the last 25 or so to the scrap guy.I tried to give away a couple hundred new 4 foot florescent tubes,people would call me wanting 2 or 4 of them.They went into the florescent recycle bin at the dump.When I was a kid the janitor at the school would give all of us the old florescent tubes.We would run to the bridge down from the school and throw them in like a spear.They made a huge bang when they hit the water just right.
