My Grandparents' Street Light At Night
This is their street, pic with my cell phone, for some reason it didn't color-correct, as the lamps are white in person, as they're all /DX.

I just wanted to show how nice and bright the street is now that I've had ever light fixed one-by-one. They didn't replace one light! The only light I can't get them to fix for some reason is the very last light on the street, which is about as dim as a 25w incandescent. Looks like the original inside-painted early 70s white Fisher Pierce photocell too. Lately NGrid has been keeping old PCs on lights when they relamp (since the Sun-Techs lately have sucked big time) so if it gets relamped there's a 50/50 chance it'll keep its PC. It looks brighter in person though... All the lamps are as bright as new.

Yeah, every one on this street and the next street is bright-as-new thanks to your's truely lol. This is Oakland Ave in Pawtucket, in the Newport Ave/Central Ave area (Darlington section of Pawtucket). The next street over, Huges Ave, has almost all mercs. Two 70W M-250R2s made their way in... those mercs are all bright too.

And now every single light is a 70W HPS M-250R2. Sad At least the new lights are drop lens HID...
