Evidence in 2012 of the city of brampton now using FCO for any cobraheads job. This new signal set installation hints that we're using the cooper OVH for 15 and 25HPS and the OVF for 40HPS. I HATE that they mounted an OVH 25HPS on a pole typically used for 40HPS, as also visible in this intersection. They look so alike, you can barely tell. You can see the comparison here by noting the photocell is mounted closer to the latch on OVH's(click to enlarge)

@Joe: this city hasnt not seen a FCO for any spot replacements yet I also find it hilarious that your city's 250w coopers are OVF but in my city they will likely be rolling out 250w cobras as smaller OVH's. They seem to love any small reflecter cobra for this wattage regardless of make here.
I think the only fixtures originally designed to only be FCO's are these coopers, so makes sense to use them for FCO?
This bothers me as historically the same fixture would be used for both of these wattages, between 2001 and 2011 both these would be an OVX, between like 1992 and 2001 both these would be a powerlite R47 (what a versatile fixture). btw Niall probably knows the dates more accurately than what I said lols.

@Niall, I guess the city listened to you, I'm seeing new white powder-coat AEL 125 FCOs at new intersection construction at shoppers world, and kennedy at steeles.
UPDATE 3013 MAR: News: They are mixing white AEL 125 FCO's with unpainted drop lens ones for intersection reconstruction along Steeles ave in Brampton. Funny, because I've seen this randomness on a project with the cooper varients, but they smartened up and switched the drop leneses there for FCO consistency.
