OV-25. Here is an OV-25, that is 400 watts High Pressure Sodium in Ft. Collins, CO. This is one of the newer HPS ones, no NEMA tag, but not MV either. Ft Collins liked to use lots of cooper fixtures until recently when they switched to GE's. Roads are covered with HPS OV-25's L-250's, OV-15's, OV-15 Tudors, L-150's, OVMs and OVSs. All are HPS, but until probably the early 2000's they switched to GE? Cause there are a couple M-400 R2's, and lots of M-400 R3's and M-250 R2's that are painted brown.

Nice! I like the older HPS lights. This one would have to be from the early-to-mid 70s so at that time NEMA tags didn't exist yet. The only Westinghouse fixtures that used NEMA tags were the L-150/L-250 and the OV-15TD and OV-25TD (and the Canadian OV-15 and OV-25). I don't think the traditional "silverliners" ever used NEMA tags since they were discontinued before NEMA tags came out.

I guess they started using GEs in the 90s if there are M-400R2s. After 1997 the M-400R2/A2 slipped under the radar until they relisted it in 2008.
