Saw a GE Form 406S PG17 streetlight and two fluorescent gas station lights on the way to Galveston. Pictures are in my gallery.

Saw some cool old fixtures near Boston as well as a couple old florescent gas station lights! Also saw some old gas lights too! I took some photos today of some lights in Boston as well as towns along the way.

Please refer to www.insulators.info where I periodically post many images of lights and insulators in the group's Picture Poster Gallery. Thank you.

At the Plaza in Gilford with the Hannaford and Lowes I noticed that a pole at the entrance to the parking lot was gone and the concrete base had a cone on it. Not sure what happened. Hope they don't install LED there.

I found a 8-8-8 traffic signal in a smaller town today. 8-8-8s are quite rare in my area so it was a pretty neat find. I also saw a pair of MV floods the other day that were fed from a single remote ballast.

Nice! Can you post a picture of those MV floodlights fed from a single ballast? I'm curious as to what that setup looks like.

Spotted some recently installed Philips Roadfocus RFL fixtures on Tasman drive in Santa Clara, CA. Hopefully another sign that SVP is ditching Leotek.

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture nor do I remember the exact location of them. I have an idea which street it's on so I might have to retrace my steps by going on a drive lol. It was a metal pole with a three fitter tenon. The centre tenon had the can ballast while the two outer tenons had a couple of those round remote MV floods mounted.

This has nothing to do with lights but I saw a truck that had stickers on lineman stuff, one said "line trash" and one was the state of NH with the words "lineman" in it. The last one was a guy on a pole.

Went out to Pittsfield today for a Baseball game (won 10-2) and saw an old M250R with a thumb latch, got a pic of it too. Also saw a missout 50w HPS M250R2 in a sea of LED. Also lots of historic houses along the way had some gas post tops!

Found these while looking for interesting things on streetview in Edmonton, Alberta, one of the older streetviews shows they were a dayburner at one point, mercury vapor! Gotta check it out while I still can one of these days
