Nameplate of the AEL ATBS
Got this from a friend who knows someone at a public works facility. It was used for a few months but was removed recently and ended up at the pubic works building. My friend's friend got a hold of it and was going to eBay it. My friend found out about it and asked him to hold off on eBaying since he knew someone (me) who would love one of these. 

So here it is! (well the sticker anyway lol).

Is the LED module replaceable? If not, it seems kind of ironic that there is a "Relamp with" on the sticker.

The label here is a generic used on all of their lights. You can't "relamp" an LED per se, as it's not a light bulb.

You actually can unplug the LED module but you gotta remove a lot of screws to get to it and there's a lot of delicate little wires. I was gonna take it apart completely but I removed the white collar around the LED cluster and lifted up the glass and that was it.

What's interested is that you can swap out the glass to change the distribution. But there's five screws holding the white collar in place lol. Also, the holes in the collar (which I thought were stupid until I learned this) are for house side shields, street side shields, and glare shields, which can be ordered and installed in the field.

There was another sticker this size with the same info in what I assume is spanish and french but I removed it since who cares lol. Just makes the light look tacky with all these labels on it. At least they stick the labels inside. Some LED companies stick the labels on the exterior of the top housing on the side. Would look OK around the NEMA tag but looks foolish on the side of the light lol.

BTW the driver is replaceable too.

Yeah labels on the side ruins the look of a light lol. I think the only place where a external label makes sense is next to the NEMA tag, like on the older Canadian cobraheads.
