Bought this a while back. It works great with the exception of one issue. After a few minutes a tiny white spec appears in tube. It's like a tiny little light spec, it'svery small. Spot is small enough where it's still usable but annoying. Can this be repaired and what is it.

I forgot to mention. The little white light/spec will at times dim down then come back. Like it's pulsating.

Bumping because I have a similar spot in my tube. It usually looks like a dark spot, but sometimes becomes an emission point, especially under very low light conditions. In the photo you can see it has a lighter halo around it, unlike the other spots in the tube

What an emissions point and how is it bad. Can it be fixed. The one on tube in Pic will pulsate dim to bright then back again. It's a small point of light.

As I recall, there is a member here that fixes emission points. It is basically the coating peeling on the output side? And then hitting them with a big ass laser can stop the spread.

do a search on google and it will pull up a bunch of arf hits

Thank you that's exactly what I have. I will track down that business you listed and speak with Timothy.
