How'd the door get like that? I mean you said tornado, but like that?
Form109   [Nov 16, 2010 at 12:22 AM]
maybe something blew it open then the Hinge Froze?
GullWhiz   [Nov 16, 2010 at 03:09 PM]
Think about it...the AE fixture has a latch mounted on the door...and it sticks out a bit...so if the hinge is nicely seated...and would stay straight..and it's possible that it was slammed against the pole so hard a little pressure of the AE tab latch is holding onto the arm by its side....and it says that way by a little pressure...from the hinge and the tab....if you look very carefully the door isn't really against the arm straightly but slightly on the side...I believe I see its curved latch touching the side of the arm!

Beats me how it got like this, but I would have to agree with Jace's idea. Thats one good thing about the Model 13/25/327, they can't really lose their doors unless the latch is un-hooked. And Devote it couldn't of froze because it was 35 degrees Celsius of 95 Fahrenheit this day and had only been a month since the tornado.

Is this HPS?
Form109   [Nov 16, 2010 at 09:33 PM]
gailgrove i wasn't implying "freeze" that way....i meant "freeze" as in something mechanical like a Hinge Siezing up and refusing to move. Smile

i'll roll with jace's idea....sounds better than mine Wink

Yeah Streetlight98...its HPS....Canada is mostly HPS in general....

@Jace, yeah I see what you're talking about, I can seen this happening to the Powerlite R47 too.

The 125 has to be taped to end up like this. Laughing

streetlight98   [Aug 08, 2011 at 10:04 PM]
That's exactly the picture I was thinking of. Laughing

I believe that pole was in a sticky situation before the 125 incident too. Laughing
