Unfortunately, we can't donate the old units because the grant from
National grid requires us to prove that we have taken them off the grid
permanently. So we will be taking them apart, scrapping the steel, copper,
aluminum etc.  The glass will end up in the dumpster.

We do have a rather large collection of 1Kw, PAR 64 bulbs in various
flavors that could disappear if there were someone who might need them.

And we'll end up with lots of C-clamps & safety cables that could get
donated, along with a significant amount of stage pin cable.
