Here's some harder to find PDFs of older streetlighting ads. As well I have attached a set of instructions for the Philips Goldeye and the Sylvania R47.

Good reading on the Goldeye, i have  one that's brand new, no box or instructions. Thanks 👍

Would love to find the documentation for the later version of the Goldeye that I have though.

No problem, too bad I don't have a set for the second generation Goldeye. I'm sure a set must exist somewhere.

Yeah, pity that. Hopefully we'll come across it some day. Thanks again for the light, it's a nice little beastie, even if it does run a bit warm

New dump of some harder to find lighting PDFs

Cooper OVZ installation instructions, NYC edition.
Cooper UCD spec sheet.
Cooper OV25 spec sheet.
GE M-250R2 installation instructions w/ ballast wiring diagram.

The OV-25 one was quite interesting!
Thanks for that UCD one too!

Interesting, thanks. By the way I've been experimenting with PFC capacitors on the Goldeye, as it delivers a rather poor 0.24 as it comes. I found that 24µF across the input (115V 60Hz) raised that to a rather impressive 0.96 which is pretty much perfect..! It still runs a bit warm, but nowhere near as bad as it was.

Hmm, I might try a 24µF on mine too. The last time I tested mine, I found a 17.5uF raised the PF enough to be considered HPF (.90+ PF). I have several 24uF capacitors so I might give that a try too. Hopefully it'll lower the operating temperature too. I didn't recall much improvement with mine with a 17.5µF capacitor though.

Here's a scanned copy of the instruction page from my Sylvania B2227.

Yay!
