| It appears I'm wrong on the Yarmouth black lights. They appear to be Cooper USSL fixtures. Not sure on the wattage and stuff because I only saw them as I was in the highway. Also, the others are indeed Cooper Archeon but they are standard grey. Yarmouth is using black lights in only certain spots.
Also, while I was in Old Town I saw a Cooper OVX on a weird bent straw pole lighting a basketball court at a school. I don't think I've noticed it before but it's not brand new.

| Here’s my finds for December. More new Leotek GCM spot replacements are going up in Cerritos, CA. Recently more GEs such as M-250R2, M-400A2, and M-400 FCOs are quitting, so instead of repairing them BES just swaps them out for LED.

| If you like rough neighborhoods, then come on down to the not-so-nice part of Artesia, CA north of the 91 freeway. The side streets are lined with M-250R2s that are shot out and full of bullet holes. Even the vandal shields SCE uses aren’t much help. Despite the poles being spaced close together with 150W HPS lamps in a residential area, you might be on someone’s turf.

| Geez. Really close together. EMEC does the 150w HPS literally everywhere but they’re not too smart, nothing to do with bad neighborhoods.
Looks like those 150w fixtures were all installed around the same time, they also are mixed in with the older 70w lights.

| More relics of Caltrans’ HPS past have been spotted. A pair of GE M-400R2 FCOs probably from the 90s are at the Lemon St overpass on the 91 Freeway. They both work along with some Nu-Art fluorescent street name signs with the old Caltrans-spec dark green sign panels.
Of course the famous Solarmax SMXs have infected the intersections.

Visited the Anaheim ReStore to see if they had anything. The store is confirmed DRY of lighting stuff today, except for a small fluorescent-looking commercial vanity light which was $20 but looked like a excellent candidate for a SOX conversion.  |

| I had to go up to Berlin for a basketball game and saw the following:
- Various MV cobraheads at houses and businesses
- Noticed that all of the MVs in Randolph NH work fine and are pretty bright! Also saw that 70w MH M250R2 working fine.
- A car dealership parking lot lit by 1000w MV shoeboxes.
- A couple more DOT missout HPS fixtures.
- An old shovelhat at an old motel
- Lots more MV NEMA heads.
- A MV McGraw-Edison floodlight on an Eversource Pole.
- A couple 1000w MV GE P1000 lights on Eversource poles.
- Black AEL LEDs at a Days Inn.
- LEDs that APPARENTLY replaced SOX lights!
- Some old Wide-Lites.

| Saw a 2 lamp desk lamp with one blackender and one brassender in it at EPO in Houston. Unfortunately, the brassender is EOL and the desk lamp costs $75.

During a visit to Ontario, CA I spotted a group of the all new AEL ATBXs which replaced some old greened-out LEDways that were probably installed as a demo years ago.  |

| Saw some HPS M-400A FCOs and an M-250A2 FCO fire up with HPS lamps that start up a deep blue-green clear MV color. An awesome sight that was.

| I went out to Claremont for a game and saw the following:
- 400w MV M400A
- 2 Working M250Rs at a garage.
- Lots more MV 101s and 101SAs, some were really bright!
- 4000K Affinity lights, first time seeing those. Claremont is the only city to have them.
- A cool old LM double guy arm.
