If you look hard enough, you may spot the odd fixture still hanging on. Kind of like how I spotted an Optispec in a sea of Roadsters & B3000s.

Fluro starter pings combined with a 50hz ballast hum and blinking tubes is music to my ears.

Why is there only 1 lamppost with SOX? the other HPS or LED.
Apparently SOX lighting is rare in the USA. Also becoming rare in Northern Europe. Unfortunately most replaced for LED. Years ago, most of them were SOX.

Some of them died apparently and didn't have any other lamps so they went DEL then
