I’ve always been interested in all kinds of lighting, mainly incandescent and HID, and especially all kinds of sodium lamps (HPS/LPS). I’ll tolerate LED but I’m not a fan of it.
I’m not proud to say that my city has Devolved to LED.

Quote from: fluorescent lover 40 on October 08, 2020, 10:57:30 AM I know of some Westinghouse OV-25 silverliners near me, if I can save them, I'll give one to you. As for a HPS GE M-400A, I know a person who can possibly hook you up with one. Thank you! If we meet up sometime, maybe we can exchange some lights if you can save those. There are some M-400As on a street behind my house that is currently being converted to LED, so I’m currently trying to save those.

I am thinking I might also want some 125w SLI/H lamps in my collection so that I can retrofit a 2 foot fluorescent fixture to LPS.

Quote from: sox35 on October 28, 2020, 06:37:30 PM No such thing as a 125W SLI/H. 140W is the nearest to that. Easiest lamp to ballast, at least on 240V, as it runs from a 90W SOX leak transformer. And they're the same size as the 200W, 3ft long. Actually, sailormoon_01_uk knows of such a lamp and those are 2 feet long and were made by GEC.

Here is what Colin Grimes quotes about 125w SLI/H lamps: “The most Rarer Sli/H Lamps I know of are the GEC 125 watt which was 2ft long, 175 (the same length as the 140/160/200w sizes) and 310 watt ratings which was 5ft long, and the Airfield/Runway Lighting Version of the 60 and 200w SLI/H lamps for some SLI/H Lamp james hooker has see HERE.”
