OV-15 Tudors found « on: July 20, 2008, 08:47:41 PM » Author: gmercury2000
I was at my girlfriends grandmothers house today and noticed 7-8 of these fixtures in service and they are all mercury. I didn't go through the whole neighborhood but next time i'm there I will get a full count. Just thought I would share this cool info.

I have not seen any OV-15 tudors either.Were these FCO or did they have drop refractors?

We have some of those OV-15 Tudors around here in BGE both in MV and HPS...also we have a small row of Tudor OV-15s at I-95 on davit arms in HPS

Also that's on my wish list on my collection since I gave away a Tudor OV-25 for smaller one....

Also if Geoff was in BGE area most likely drop lens....but New Jeresy is FULL of Tudor OV-15s....that state got more Tudor OV-15s than anywhere else I've seen and in clear mercury vapor too!

The ones I saw were all drop lense. They all had GE acrylic refractors for the most part. I would love to see them with glass.

I also find very typical for McGraw Unidors and Line Materials/McGraw Unistyle have GE refractors....in a way it kinda pisses me off since I'm seeking for 2 refractors for my Unidor and Unistyle.... :-(

In my area the Unidors seem to all have their original refractors.

There are at least two OV-15 Tudors near where I live. Found the second one a couple of months ago. Both are HPS but have original glass.
