I see some high pressure forest fire lights in the background.

Too dim, the HPS from the parking lot (or whatever is over there) is overpowering the LED on the street!

The LEDs are way to blue IMO. They should make them either warmer like incandescents or like DX mercs, although /DX merc is almost impossible for a clear light source.

DX Mercs tend to be white with a slight pink hue...doesn't sound impossible..shouldn't they be able to make LED's in just about any color?...anyway i agree it is too blue and im sure its alot dimmer than what it replaced!

The LEDs in LA are 4500K. They are close to a /DX, just a bit bluer.

They should put some sort of transluscent coatign on the LEDs. They're too glarey.

Induction vs LED - what do you think guys?

The first two poles visible in this photo are inductions, the ones after the first pole on the right are all LED. I find the LEDs a bit too bluish and they are dimmer than the inductions.
