There are no OVMs in Metal Halide. They're outdated luminaires. Maybe someone here or LG who has one could cheat by putting in a Metal Halide ballast and bulb in it. lol
The 1977 GE catalog has MH listed. Back then, it was only 400 and 1000w MH. MH wasn't common because the oldest design wasn't anymore effecient than MV
@Tpirman1982 Wikipedia is right on some things...it can be edited by anybody and in the past there were alot of Inaccuracies so you can't always be sure Wikipedia is 100 Precent Correct.
Yes OVM did come out MH in the later 90s. OVM were still available in the 90s. The OVS was discontinued first, but the OVM was still in production longer.
Just because you never seen them does not mean it does not exist, I have never seen you take pictures of streetlights OUTSIDE of Massachuttes...there are a lot of other lights that are not in Massachuttes because there are different electrical companies that have preferred source, brands and stuff...
I myself NEVER saw a 35 watt HPS Cobrahead...does that mean they don't exist?
@Jace: yeah Ive seen a GE NEMA Bucket in 35W HPS Before, but never that low of a wattage in a corbra, lowest I've seen in a cobra is 50W HPS which is DIM!
Here we have some 175W MH OVX's with DX MVs In some
Yup, there exists ton of things that we've not seen before!
A given lighting setup stays hypothetical as long as nobody saw one in service. Although some setups can be considered impossible (like a 1000W Cooper OVZ LOL).
A good example is the (scarce) /X mercury vapour lamp. Only a few collectors such as Joe Maurath have the chance to own one. I've never heard of the 400W model, but it probably exists. There's maybe one of these collecting dust somewhere in North America, waiting for a collector!
I think he meant as a factory order. There are some special requests that can't be made. Cooper may be willing to do that, but I know GE refuses to do certain things.
According to Wikipedia... replaced the L250, predecessor to the OVD.

The OVX is a small size lume.
I don't think a 35w HPS on a road would light anything on the road.
