LOL yeah this thing is loud. I tested the M-400 today with my split door's capacitor and i thought I miswired it or something because it was even louder than this light. And the pitch of the buzz kept changing like something was wrong. I don't think anything was wrong though. The lamp warmed up within spec and hot-restriked within the normal time frame too so I'm pretty sure the lamp was running to spec.
too bad the M-400 isn't for me.
I have this M-250R mounted in my bedroom and it's so loud my mom said I'm not aloud to run it in the house lol. When I get a new pole out back I'll mount this. BTW, Geroge, do you have a spare Westinghouse/Cooper terminal block and/or a spare Westinghouse/Cooper photocell socket? My TuDor is in need of a little TLC... The terminal block lugs are rusted out so they don't function anymore and the PC socket works fine but when you go to remove the PC from the PC socket it really puts up a fight and won't let go of the PC. I had a Fisher Pierce PC in it and the cover came off when I tried to pull it out (and yes, I twisted it to the left first lol). So I think it's just time for a new PC socket. But the terminal block is a necessity so if you know where I can find one please tell me. thanks. It's the same style Cooper uses now.
I have terminal blocks but I think there AEL one is two position and the other is three. i could have a cooper but I would have to pilfer a light witch is really no big deal are you talking about the plastic blocks? I know all about tight PC receptacles, one of my Power Bracket's is like that.
The one I have is ceramic but it's otherwise identical to the new Cooper ones. I can live with a plastic one if you have one. I'd need to make sure its the right kind though. My OVC has an identical terminal block and PC socket so Cooper used the same components, at least at one point. The PC socket i guess I can live with lol. If I have to I think I can drill out the seized terminals on the ceramic block and then keep the ceramic block and just put the new terminals on it. If the AEL version has the same type of terminals and you can take the terminals off I could do it that way I guess. It's a 2-position BTW.
