That's what the safety chain is for, I'd hate to be under it if it falls

I wonder how much does a gumball assembly weigh.
Silverliner14B   [Dec 20, 2010 at 06:53 AM]
Gumballs don't weigh that much, maybe a little heavier than a yardlight tho.

Yikes thats not good Shocked I still wonder who the manufacture of these gumballs is Question
Form109   [Dec 21, 2010 at 07:49 AM]
say joe are these original old gumballs?....i saw some of them in a Tv-series that was Toronto-Based.
gailgrove   [Dec 21, 2010 at 04:17 PM]
Devonte I believe there are a many originals but some are replacements, in fact they still are installed in new instillations today Very Happy BTW I almost got one of these Mad
Form109   [Dec 29, 2010 at 08:55 AM]
cool that you almost got one....what prevented you from getting one?
gailgrove   [Dec 29, 2010 at 05:11 PM]
Liability issues, that utility was concerned if I got injured from the lights that my parents might sue, a little extreem to say the least Shocked (that would NEVER happen) but for that reason they wouldn't give me any lights Rolling Eyes

Yeah that's too bad then, Toronto still has some older lights still in use after being retro'd to HPS.

I wonder if any other utility uses these lights or where to even get them.
gailgrove   [Feb 01, 2011 at 02:59 PM]
I just noticed the lights are mounted to 4X4's Shocked
joe_347V   [Feb 02, 2011 at 02:44 AM]
I also noticed the dangling one has a broken or missing lamp.
gailgrove   [Feb 02, 2011 at 03:55 PM]
Yeah, it matches the other half of Toronto's lights that don't work or are damaged Rolling Eyes

The gumball fell down sometime between December and last Wednesday. Rolling Eyes
