My Wheeler Crescent Moon On an Underbraced Cantilever Arm
This is a utility metals mounting arm. Not sure how old the arm is, but it's way newer than the fixture, which is from the late 50s. Sure looks good on that arm though (at least I think so)! In this pic it's got a black Fisher Pierce Sun-Tech electronic photocell and a Greenlite 7W 800L clear filament LED.

Filament LED eh? I actually never heard of this until recently.

Sidenote, What are your plans for that speaker?

Yeah they've been around for maybe a year or year and a half but recently I found some for cheap at the ReStore ($2 each) so I bought two 7W 800L clear ones and two more of the same but frosted ones. I'd like to go back and get more, but would like them even more if they came out with a 1000L or brighter filament LED (that wasn't so expensive). Originally, incandescent street lights typically used 1000L incandescent lamps so I'd like to get at least that brightness and I'd like to get the filament lamps in A21 shape like the real street light lamps, which are unfortunately no longer made.

As for the speaker, I pulled that out of my car. It's a Delco (came out of my 1990 Buick Regal). I replaced the speakers because the sound quality wasn't the best but the speakers still work so I didn't want to toss them out. I don't know anything about sound systems (though replacing the speakers was easy enough, no wiring) but it would be cool to use the speakers for like a home intercom or something.

Yeah, it would be nice if they made a 1000-1200L LED filament for my smaller incandescent streetlights. A21 would be a nice bonus too.

I remember trying to find one when I first heard of them on LG, now all the major hardware stores sell some form of them.

I believe a 75W equivalent LED would be about 1000 lumens but not sure if one exists. If so, it's probably not A21.
