Why I like LEDs on top of other lighting tech?
LEDs = Upgrade 95% of the applications. (That is if you avoid eBay's LEDs).

LED brainwash? No, people uses them cuz they work well for them.

Is it just me or did that one HPS fixture try to reignite even after the wire burned off?

I think the closest one was trying to reignite.....It looks like the photocell may have seen the flashes and shut off for a second causing it to hot restrike...but the others looks like it went off completely....now I am not sure if this wire also powers the light....but I also noticed the wire BEFORE that light didn't burn
