Holophane 4215 Glass Refractor « on: January 15, 2021, 12:27:06 PM » Author: HPS_250
Looking for only one of these, preferably NOS or at least in good used condition. I believe they fit AEL 115s and GE M-250R2s. In case I ever get one of these, I’d like to find a spare refractor.

Thanks!

There's one on eBay but it's a bit expensive.

Shipping is $20 on top of that.  :o Thanks for the link, but unfortunately this one is too expensive for me.

Yeah you're probably better off finding a whole light for that kind of money if you have the room.

There's also a GE plastic drop lens and a NOS 100w HPS Cooper OVZ with a Holophane 4215 glass that might be worth it depending on shipping.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/202998071390 $24.99 O.B.O. This has been listed for over 6 months so it might be worthwhile to make an offer . I'd try $20 .

It's a good price for one but I think that's a refractor for a AE 125, maybe the most recent GE M400 and M400A too as they seem to be very similar to the AE 125.

Thanks for the link, but the shipping costs $73 to me!  :o

Don't remember the Holophane part number for this, but it's made for an ITT/American-Electric Series 25.

There was a good deal on some 4215's a while back, and an exhaustive search of eBay comes up negative...looks like someone bought them.

There were two for sale for $20 with $20 shipping but someone bought them about a week ago.

Holophane 4215 refractors are quite common so one will probably come up on eBay again.

More 4215's are now on eBay. I posted a link in the web-finds.
