It's $50 if you're in Canada Very Happy

But I've never actually saw one of these used as a streetlight before, or mounted on that long of a arm.

Looks like an ElectriPak 175w MV fixture from the early 90s just like mine...

this is the only town i've ever seen such an installation.....it's a small town yes,and i can certainly see the Logic....a Cheap & plentiful replacement. however in this case it can come across as a little tacky & lazy since streetlights of other types arent difficult to obtain.
