There's one near me...you konw Darren...Now one question is....is it actually called a L-400??? I know in Westinghouse version it was called OV-400....The first Westinghouse OV-400 was a OV-15 body with 400 watt MV ballast......this exact fixture and above fixture is the results of the OVX you know?

These are about as rare as those mercury vapor L-250's.

Kansas seems to have tons of old lights. On the interstates and all.

I think they are Mercury Vapor, I dunno.

What I see on the interstate in kansas, are lots of L-150s, OV-15s, 113, 313, OVZ, Lots of small fixtures. And the OV-15 and the L-150 seem pretty common on the state roads. I have seen lots on 70 through kansas.

I saw one L-150 in Breckenridge, CO...it was dayburning and LOOKED like it was MV, but it could have been a cycling HPS....

I see. Maybe next time I go to Breckenridge I can check that out. Do you know where it was?

Darren could you show a pic of the L150 insides? I'd like to see how the 400w ballast fits inside a small luminaire.

It was not too far off the hotel I visited.....Let me figure it out..
