He obviously has 3 of them....I went MINE! ...but instead of this nice fixture, a giraffe....had.....clipped my wings....so sadly those can't be a toilet of MINE!
I think they should....in HPS and MH at least! It would be interesting! Also they would do well in icetons....but let me say...I don't think those are available in glass...only plastic...the sag lens are glass so they are better in higher wattage.....
I have only seen ONE row of setup in use with this style lens in Montgomery County....under HPS
And those weren't from BGE, it was from New Jersey...
The issue with using the ones that we did have as NOS was the amount of time and labor costs. It is cheaper to scrap them instead of upgrading them. It is sad to think all the fixtures being scrapped but you have to look at it from a financial stand point. It would be nice to save all them but it's not possible.
Yes this is the same size as the prismatic refractor. Also to answer the question as to why the stock is not used up is due to the govt telling us that we can not use any mercs even excess stock!
I am sure they were also sold to other electrical companies....I heard that from somewhere...Because I know some electrical companies continued to install old stocks.
How do these clear drop refractors alter the lighting distribution from an FCO light? Cause the plastic can't do much to the lighting distribution but add shadows...

alot of M400A3's in dallas have this "Clear Drop Lense" i won't call it sag cause its the same depth as the prismatic drop.
As for the govt saying we can't use NOS MV lights. Major epic FAIL! That's the stupidest thing I ever heard.
