GE red traffic light lens, brand new!
One of the today's surprise my dad got from work. At the utility's warehouse, they are cleaning and a lot of stuff is going to trash. I apparently missed three streetlight from give or take a week. But lots of stuff is coming up if my dad's right! Streetlights, PCs, traffic lights, etc.

Here's an brand new LED traffic light lens that somehow was about being thrown away. The guy that give it to my dad works with him now and is actually the same guy that gave me my streetlight! What a cool coincidence!!

Nice LED Vince,sounds like some good stuff is coming up!! Wow that's cool the same guy that gave you the light is now working with your dad!

Nice!..a GE Gelcore LED!....those are Pretty Cool!...they still Fall Behind Dialights in Sales though...but i kinda like these more...because they are GE! Very Happy

In Israel we haven't these individual traffic lights lens with built-in LEDs arrays in the LED traffic lights (In this picture, this is a 3rd party lens as GE aren't makes the whole traffic lights). The israelis LED traffic lights is completely different. They are costructed exactly like the incandescent traffic lights ie... with reflectors and a simple colored glass lens (But with different pattern) but with LEDs arrays built-in behind the optical system instead of the socket. This allows for the classical symbols and arrows of the incandscents ones on the lens of these LED traffic lights to be retained. See my gallery for more information about LED traffic lights in Israel.

I was surprised to see it was a GE. The public utility here seems to love GE, streetlights are GE, traffic lights are GE...

They use these GE traffic signal panels ALL OVER Denver. The ones I got were found in Denver. I got 3 of them, Red, Yellow, Green.

Very nice finds Vince, it seems like you have even more goodies coming up. It pretty cool that your dad is able to bring you all this stuff home.

GE GELcores are also Popular in Louisiana...Shreveport has them in Virturally all but a Few Signals.
LilCinnamon   [Aug 03, 2010 at 11:50 PM]
Yeah I know. They are everywhere in Bossier. I see some in Shreveport too. Its popular there. And now I know how to spot a GELcore now xD They have lots of these in littleton on the newer double davit signal setups.

Wow Vince...you are a lighting magnet!
TiCoune66   [Aug 04, 2010 at 11:49 PM]
Well, I think the magnet got demagnetized a bit Laughing My dad cannot really promise anything when it's about getting lighting stuff from work. I don't want him to be in trouble too. I may have better chances to get stuff if I actually BUY it.
Form109   [Aug 05, 2010 at 01:01 AM]
Hey Vince it'd be cool if you could Find a Green and Yellow GELcore too.....then you could also make your Own Signal Housing (Vince Electric Signal Division) Laughing
TiCoune66   [Aug 05, 2010 at 01:28 AM]
"Vince Electric - Signals division", that sounds good!

I could already make a one-lens unit, that could be a cool project to work on!
joe_347V   [Aug 05, 2010 at 02:33 AM]
Well you could always try to make one of those flasher signals with one signal lens Wink but you have to figure out how to make it flash...
Form109   [Aug 05, 2010 at 02:50 AM]
One Lense as in a Single Section Signal that Displays all Three Colors in the Same Section instead of Splitting it into 3?
joe_347V   [Aug 05, 2010 at 02:53 AM]
^^^ That's a pretty cool idea Devonte I've never heard of a single lensed signal that displays all three colours.

I wonder how the drivers would act if they started using those signals instead Very Happy
GullWhiz   [Aug 05, 2010 at 08:03 AM]
That's a GREAT idea.....howerever....here's a issue.......colorblind?
Form109   [Aug 05, 2010 at 09:45 AM]
make it a Backlight High Intensity LCD....that Displays a Red Triangle,Square Yellow,and Oval Green.... Very Happy
GullWhiz   [Aug 05, 2010 at 10:11 AM]
Hummmm....the red should be Octigon....yellow should be triangle...and green should be circle.........hmmm?

Also....what about arrows buddy...
Form109   [Aug 05, 2010 at 11:29 AM]
It's all so Complicated...no wonder they make 3 Section Heads...also...That's Octagon...not Octigon Wink
Also Being that it would be an LCD Screen it could Display Arrows as well...but the Circuitry would be too much of a Hassle....anyway Why should Red be the OCTAGON,Yellow the Triangle and Green the Circle?....Prehaps we should Turn this into another Drawing Contest> Cool
