Hubbell Lighting - BSS-100HS-1-LAB My first MH fixture. Thanks to whoever traded with me. I forgot who is it though... How do they relamp these? Taking the lids off is easy but putting them back on is a PITA. The tabs the steel lid goes on are slightly bent. Had to unbend them to get the bolt holes lined up. Aluminium lid is easier to mount. I use this to light up my room whenever I need more light than the single bare CFL can supply. That bare CFL is temporary as the room is gonna get painted before I decide on either a circline fixture or a trio of E-26 lamps fixture. Made in 1985 according to the reactor ballast and the multi-tap 240v transformer. The transformer have the usual quad voltage input wires. Only the ballast is 240v input. Pretty neat if you ask me!

Nice. I've always liked this style. I know of a house that had the HPS versions as post lights all around the property....the new owner, of course, relamped with incandescents....

Nice light and interesting ballast too, I've never seen a modern fixture with a separate ballast and step up.

Oh boy, I don't get credited for this............how depressing!!!!

Yes I gave him this, I was given 5 of those.....I only have "2" of them now...one being original state and other being modified to be smaller (shorter) And he is right it is from 1985.....3 or 4 of them had the original ballast while the others had a replacement...it has a easy to replace ballast kit.....the whole socket,ballast reflector assembly has to be removed and you gotta slide a new assembly in.....keeping the base...and the top...however I had 2 of them that had a newer top...which was black instead of brown...

Cool. I've always liked bollards.

Yep! Jace TRADED this for the Stonco flood light. Remember that Jace? A fair deal if you ask me. He wanted the Stonco flood and I wanted to get a Bollard light.
GullWhiz   [Dec 07, 2011 at 04:23 AM]
yes....yes.....yes.... one of those!!!

What's ironic...is the same day he gave me this fixture Stonco, we actually saw 2 more of those Stonco Halogen Floods....on the side of the building...one was missing the glass...LOL

Too lazy to post a pic of your Stonco light? Razz Yeah I remember seeing two more of them in the wild.
joe_347V   [Dec 07, 2011 at 05:07 AM]
Can I get a inside pic of the aforementioned Stonco light? Razz

Ick!!! Big words! Laughing I don't like big words. Razz

Oh really? But nonetheless, it is a propitious idea to assimilate the more progressive words so you can become more studious person!!!

I don't feel the slightest vestige of compunction in joining this thread, as I am a very eloquent and studious wordsmith. My high school English teacher once suggested that I become a lexicographer.

To comment on this upload in an "a propos" fashion, may I opine that the specimen you show here, Felipe, is indeed rather pulchritudinous. Cool
