Quote from: thelightingman on July 23, 2021, 02:38:13 AM Have there been any problems with the AEL ATB0's? My town has quite a few as spot replacements. Not really, I've only seen a couple flicker, those were somewhat older models. It's possible those could fail too as thus is mainly happening with its larger brother, the ATB2.

Interesting. WSDOT used WA-161 in the northern part of Puyallup as a pilot project in 2016, and the ATB2 was used. The city of Puyallup used the ATB0 around that same time. So far, I've seen a few failures from the ATB2's, but for the most part, they're still running. I haven't noticed any failures from the ATB0's yet. In later years, the city of Puyallup used GE Evolves and Leotek GreenCobras.

Quote from: mdcastle on July 27, 2021, 09:50:02 PM Are these the ATBX models only that are affected? The ATB2 is the one having the most problems, the ATBX is fine with the exception of the one I saw that had a slight purple color to it.

Quote from: mdcastle on July 29, 2021, 09:27:13 PM Probably explains why I haven't seen any purple ones in my area. . MnDOT started using Philips Roadview on new installations, then switched to ATBMs and Navions / Verdions for the mass conversion and subsequent installations, and Xcel uses GE Evolves. If there's any ATB2s it's a local city and there's not very many. ATB2 was technically a MnDOT approved product for a short time but they never actually used any. Some ATB2s in my area (Columbia Heights) have started turning purple in the past two months. They were installed in 2017, originally 3,000k and I believe they are city owned.

I haven't seen any ATB0 turning purple here. And the ATBX don't seem to do it either, although those are a bit newer. And the ATB Micros aren't old enough to do it. But I did notice some more of these ATB2 turning purple on Friday at an intersection that has them on the traffic light poles.

Collect vintage incandescent and fluorescent fixtures. Also like HID lighting and streetlights.
