Revere Urban-Lite (aka Pea-Head) « on: December 25, 2019, 07:07:48 PM » Author: joseph_125
Came across this searching the internet today. It was on eBay a couple years ago but I wonder if any collectors ended up getting it. Still nice to look at the pictures I guess. Looks to be NOS too, the IBEW Union Made sticker on the slipfitter is still intact.

A side note, I wonder how the Pea-Head moniker came about, most of the literature from Revere called this model the Urban-Lite but it seems the name Pea-Head is quite commonly used by collectors.

That must have been a super rare find. Even the used ones are fairly rare IMO.

I'll probably buy one if I ever happen upon some good amount of money. I've been wanting an old light for a while.

Been mostly working on stocking bulbs tho due to the future demise of hid.

I "bought" one from that eBayer earlier this year. He NEVER shipped it to me. After a week of no shipping notification, I asked him what happened. He said he had sold them all.

After a few months, I saw he still has this ad up, I asked him "I thought you sold them all" his response was something about "oops" and he thought he had some more stored away somewhere, he'll need to find them.

I felt shafted though, he had several good feedbacks on that product
