My area seems to like HPS, because no matter how many bulb go EOL , it gets replaced with a HPS I’m glad they do this Hopefully with you they keep on relamping it with HPS

Any mercury vapor lights left in Manitoba? I see Winnipeg had a lot of old fixtures from the 1960s before the LED changeout, but they were converted to HPS.

Quote from: toomanybulbs on April 24, 2018, 08:45:00 AM maybe hps close enough to monochromatic that filters work well too? HPS are not even close at all, they have pretty continuous spectrum from yellow down to deep red (pressure broadening of the Na "D" line). So to filter it out you will loose half of the visible spectrum and not just narrow band around some distinct line like with LPS or MV
