The Thomas & Betts Model 25, it is very ugly, but also a very nice fixture, and one of my personal favorites.

Thomas & Betts model 25? I thought by the time the Thomas & Betts stuff came around they discontinued the 25.  But I'll bite with something very controversial. The General Electric M250R2.  They took everything from the R1 and decided that they were gonna make it worse. It looks so disproportional and just weird.

Yes, They did continue it for sometime. I also remember seeing like 10 NOS ones on eBay back in like 2019/2020. there's one posted on a different site

For me, I personally like all of them but I'm not a fan of the OVX's boxy design.

I am just used to saying it that way, and I probably will never change.

Probably the AEL DuraStar or the Cooper OVF.

AEL Durastar. I think it was one of if not the only cobrahead ever made of fiberglass and not aluminium.

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.
