I think Philips is about to ruin their Roadfocus lineup « on: February 27, 2022, 10:06:37 AM » Author: CreeRSW207
Seems like Philips is about to introduce the “Roadfocus Plus” lineup, I’m not sure if it will replace the original lineup or not but these look really cheap. The photo below appears to be the smallest option.

Uh oh, looks like a knockoff HID Mongoose or something.

I hope they don't discontinue the original RoadFocus series. It looks vaguely like a Cooper OVF. Also, the optics look like the Silicone Micro optics used on luminaires made by NLS Lighting.

Yeah, the original RoadFocus series isn't that bad looking. Although these look like like a HID cobrahead, especially that short lived American Electric model with the truncated housing. If they tweaked the design a bit and added a drop light it would probably be the most cobrahead looking LED light.

Yea I don't really care for them (at least the nano model) because they look too much like a Navion. It would be pretty nice to see these with a drop lens.

@joseph_125, That is probably the Howard Lighting USC/AEL 413 fixtures that you're referring to.

Yeah the AEL 413 was the model I was referring to, pretty obscure light so I always forget the model number of it.

I've actually never seen one In person. Just a couple on here. The closest one that I know of is one I saw on the Frangioso's Album buy I don't even know if it's still there.

Looks very similar to the LED Howard fixtures.

I don't see the resemblance to a cobrahead fixture

ON LG FOR 2 YEARS! Please don't ask to meet up with me, as I am still living with my mother. Don't send me items either please, thank you!
LED street lights are bad. Some look good though. HID is better.
Please, watch out for the future. It's not looking good. Loves instruction manuals of any kind!

Yeah, looks somewhat cheap and lower quality from that photo at least. For now the original lineup is still in production according to their website though.

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.
