In addition, I am also considering having Mexican HID ballasts in my collection such as the ISB Sola ballasts rated for 127v 60hz operation.

The coloured MH lamps we have are from the German manufacturer BLV, see here. We only have blue, green and magenta so far.

Here are some street lights I would like on my bucket list: Original GE M1000 Original GE M400 GE Form 400 GE Form 109 Westinghouse OV20 Thorn Alpha 3 Revo Prefect Revo Lucidor Revo Sol D’or Revo Silvergold (particularly the C13198 and the C13199, and the C13197) GEC Z9494 AEI Amberline Junior GEC Z9484 Westinghouse OV25 Cooper OVX GE M250R2 Westinghouse OV50 AEG Koffer 70 GEC Dioptrion GEC clearmain GEC Optispec Thorn Gamma 6 Thorn Beta 5 Revo Dalek Philips SORA GEC Z9425 Revo C9225 Wardle open solar In particular, I seem to enjoy many of the designs that are seen on British low pressure sodium street lights since many of these lanterns have such unique designs that are not seen anywhere else.

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.

I am also interested in having a GEC golden linear SLI/H lamp in my collection sometime.

Before I received my 60w SLI/H fixture and lamp, it had been on my bucket list for a while. As of now, it is considered the crown jewel of my lighting collection due to its rarity.

The UK eBay is probably your best bet for SOX fixtures.
