Westinghouse. I quite like the Vanguard and the Silverliner. I also like the ITT NEMA. There are other less common brands that made some beautiful ones in Canada like Douglas.

Westinghouse OV15's because that was my first, and Line Material Industries, because the utility that served my childhood home installed them throughout their service area.

Everything vintage. That’s my favorite! But if I must choose one, Westys all the way!

I like all older brands but Westinghouse as my street used to have OV-15s on it.

Second would probably be Powerlite.

HID Fixtures should stay HID, but I think LED is fine too.

Such as the American Electric LuxMaster 153 or the Full Cutoff version called the 53?
American Electric doesn't make the LuxMaster anymore though, sadly

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!
