It doesn't look like any lightbulb I've ever seen. Could you give us a picture of the fixture that's in the lower-left corner?

I Hopped on in and pulled it out half the size I thought it was (Im having a off day it seemed bigger in the distance) Its 1 foot and plastic with a mylar sack in and seems to be a bladder of some sort and says max pressure 3.5 something. I got pics hold up. Is it a Hydrolic bladder thingy for somthing?

Try to give it a sniff,If it smells like beer or vinegar,it was probably a beerball,if it smells like poop,maybe a colostomy bag of sorts?Beerballs are usually dark tinted amber& without any bags inside,I have not seen a clear beerball!I would go with Nighthikers choice-Some type of methlab parts or such!

The beer balls are amber to keep out the light. Light damages beer. The mylar bag would do the same thing as the amber beer ball. Just as a general rule of thumb though...don't smell things found in the dumpster. cool
